Minutes of RBA October 4 meeting revealed that members “carefully considered two options” of 50bps and 25bps rate hike. The arguments for a 25bps hike “rested on the risks to global and domestic growth, and the potential for inflation to subside quickly”.
Wages growth had “not reached levels that would be inconsistent with the inflation target”. External inflation pressures “might ease quickly given that the global outlook had deteriorated”. There was also an argument to slow for a time to “assess the effects of the significant increases in interest rates to date”.
RBA said the arguments for both options were “finely balanced”, with the case of 25bps hike stronger. “A smaller increase than that agreed at preceding meetings was warranted given that the cash rate had been increased substantially in a short period of time and the full effect of that increase lay ahead.”
At the meeting, RBA raised the cash rate target by 25bps to 2.60%.
