Phil Lowe late yesterday:
I would like to thank the Australia-Israel Chamber of Commerce for the invitation to speak at this lunch today. It is great to be back in Perth again. I look forward to learning more about how the Western Australian economy is going. Later this year, the full Reserve Bank Board will be here for our monetary policy meeting on the first Tuesday in September.
When I was in Perth six months ago I gave a speech titled ‘The Next Chapter’. In that speech I explored some of the likely plot lines in the next chapter of Australia’s economic history. I would like to continue that broad theme today.
