The minutes from the Reserve Bank of Australia’s board meeting in February show that it considered leaving the cash rate unchanged at 4.35 per cent. The RBA board subsequently concluded that the case for an interest rate cut of 25 basis points was a "stronger one". However, the minutes emphasised that further interest cuts are by no means certain, a point that the RBA also made in a statement that was released after the two-day board meeting in mid-February. Money markets have now priced in two further interest rate cuts in 2025, beginning in July; the federal election must be held no later than 17 May.
