Economic Outlook

Australia is now beginning a modest recovery from the very soft growth in household incomes that occurred from 2012 to 2016.

Whilst consumption is not expected to return to the golden period, it is expected that rising household income will continue to support steady growth.

Furthermore it is not expected a rise in the RBA’s cash rate until at least the second-half of 2020, which should also provide support for growth over the medium-term.
