    Excerpt · English

    Read excerpt

    The Reserve Bank of Australia says global bond markets could become disorderly if public balance sheets continue to stretch, a warning delivered amid a steep sell-off that is making government debt more expensive. In a semi-annual financial system health check, the bank said “global sovereign bond markets could be subjected to a disorderly repricing, which could spill over to a wide range of asset markets, including in Australia”.

    RBA warns the biggest threat to financial stability lies offshore (opens the original)

    Excerpt · English

    Read excerpt

    The Reserve Bank of Australia’s semi-annual health check of financial stability is partly intended to frighten us about the dangers that lie ahead. However, more often than not the 70-page Financial Stability Review document has a calming influence as the graphs and forecasts show how the banks, households and businesses can withstand higher living costs, rising interest rates and plunging house prices.

    Excerpt · English

    Read excerpt

And it has ended with two of its wholesale funds with over $9 billion of assets being frozen until accurate valuations can be calculated. Gift articles to anyone you choose

    Excerpt · English

    Read excerpt

    Metrics Credit Partners has suspended redemptions from its $6 billion unlisted wholesale fund, as valuation concerns that led to a dispute with auditors create significant uncertainties for the lending giant. The wholesale fund underpins several of Metrics’ strategies, feeding into its ASX-listed Master Income Trust, which was suspended from trade on Monday after revealing material differences in its audited accounts.

    Bullock fails to clear the market’s high bar on further rate rises (opens the original)

    Excerpt · Neutral tone · English

    Read excerpt

    The Reserve Bank of Australia lifted the cash rate to 4.6 per cent, its fourth increase this year and the highest setting since 2011, piling more pressure on struggling borrowers. That was a formality. So traders instead looked for clues as to how the central bank was thinking and whether a further three interest rate hikes priced in by the market align with its view of what needs to be done on inflation.
