In 2022, market forecasts have pushed back the first Reserve Bank of Australia (RBA) rate hike from June to July and now catch rates at 1.0% by year-end rather than 1.25%. Meanwhile, the yield on three-year bonds has fallen 20 basis points to 1.36%. Moreover, the RBA has kept rates at 0.1% throughout and reiterated its patience with policy.
On the other hand, Su-Lin Ong, chief economist for Australia at RBC Capital Markets, noted that households had now built up excess savings of around A$28 billion, or 13% of GDP. She expressed that solid household balance sheets could support market expectations for above-trend and robust growth in 2022.
