RBA: ### A few bank views on the RBA minutes due 0230BST/1130AEST:

- ANZ: Our RBA Bias Index indicates that RBA statements have become

progressively hawkish over this year. The minutes of the Bank's September board

meeting will shed light on this development.

- CBA: Nothing surprising in the meeting statement. In a recent speech, Governor

Lowe mentioned that this meeting's special discussion issue was on China. So we

can expect to hear more on the RBA's thinking on this topic

- TD Securities: Recent minutes have contained new information so will be

closely watched. week with Sept meeting Minutes and two speeches. After the

recent surprise BoC hike and stronger language from the BoE supporting the case

for a hike, attention will be turning to any signs the RBA could join the fray.

- Westpac: Minutes will provide insight on the board's expectations, but he

meeting took place before the Q2 GDP release. In a post meeting speech, Governor

Lowe reiterated that balancing support for the labour market and risks to

household debt remain front of mind. He also noted that this month's meeting

special discussion was on the Chinese economy.
