MACROECONOMICS 2Executive summaryThe Australian Monetary Policy stance governed by the Reserve Bank of Australia has played a major role in maintaining significant monetary supply and demand, price stability of commodities, credit control, and develops a suitable interest rate framework. In the last minute ofthe RBA Monetary Policy, the central bank of Australia kept the benchmark cash rate at 1.5 percent. In the monetary policy statement, the RBA has also clarified that the falling strength in the Australian dollar can create an adverse impact on inflation and economic growth status. Additionally, the fall in the interest rate has resulted in an increase in the flow of money that further led to an increase in the inflation rate. However, it is forecasted by several economists that the RBA will increase in the interest rate to 3.5 percent in the future in order to maintain a balance in the economy.

Previous ResearchIn terms of previous research done on the subject of monetary policy, a review of theresearch of Manalo, Perera, and Rees (2014) can be presented.
