RBA Dated OIS Prices Almost 50bps Of Additional Tightening

STIR

RBA-dated OIS pricing is flat across meetings out to Mar’24 and 1-3bps firmer beyond ahead of this week’s policy meetings from the BOJ, FOMC and BOE. The RBA Policy Decision is next Tuesday.

  • The market currently assigns a 71% probability to a 25bp rate hike next Tuesday. This percentage had risen to 80% following the release of higher-than-expected Q3 and September CPI data last week. However, it saw a reduction in the days that followed after RBA Governor Bullock delivered non-committal remarks during her appearance before the Senate Economics Committee.
  • Expectations for the terminal rate are slightly higher at 4.53%, indicating an increase of 46bps by August 2024. This represents the highest level reached since mid-July.
