A live webinar with ANZ's economics chief Adam Boyton and Pendal’s head of bond strategies Tim Hext
2025 presents a turning point for the investment landscape, as global factors suggest the Reserve Bank of Australia may be lagging behind its global peers in addressing monetary challenges.
What lies ahead for interest rates, inflation, wages, and consumer spending? How will the RBA’s new leadership respond to pressures from aggressive global rate cuts, a sluggish Chinese recovery, and persistent trade headwinds?
Adam Boyton, ANZ’s Head of Australian Economics, brings cutting-edge insights from real-time data, offering clarity on the forces shaping potential rate cuts and their implications for Australia’s monetary policy.
Tim Hext, Pendal’s Head of Government Bond Strategies, will share how he is positioning for inflation, lower yields, and uncovering opportunities for fixed-income investors amidst the shifting landscape.
Join Adam and Tim for an engaging live online discussion to explore these critical themes and their impact on investment strategies.
