DESCRIPTION:The RBA has resumed easing monetary policy and\, if futures market pricing is to be believed\, RBA will take the cash rate below 1% in 2020. As the so-called &ldquo\;zero-bound&rdquo\; for conventional policy is approached discussion about the use of alternative monetary policy\, including quantitative easing\, will intensify. The RBA has indicated that options involving a deeper rummage around in the monetary policy tool kit have been road-tested but are unlikely to be needed in Australia. We shall see. This event features a panel of eminent economists\, academics and bankers and examines what QE and other unconventional policies in Australia may look like\, and what the implications of implementation might be.
