The Reserve Bank of Australia has retained the official cash interest rate at its lowest level of 0.25 percent. The decision was widely expected by analysts and economists.
Currently, the Australian economy is experiencing a very difficult period, with the biggest contraction since the 1930s. Since March, over 800,000 people have lost jobs, with many more on reduced hours or under employed.
Additionally, much of Victoria was placed into Stage 3 Lockdown today as the COVID-19 situation in metropolitan Melbourne worsens.
The RBA Board is doing what it can to support incomes, businesses and jobs and set Australia up for the recovery when that time comes.
