RBA Deputy Governor Andrew Hauser has underscored the central bank's commitment to returning inflation to its target range, stating officials "will act as needed." In multiple statements, Hauser acknowledged that while some inflationary pressures may unwind, persistent supply constraints are a concern. He characterized current inflation levels as "uncomfortably high," signaling that monetary policy will remain focused on price stability. Hauser also noted the recent rise in the Australian dollar has contributed to tighter financial conditions.
