  • The increase will take place over a number of years to minimise the market impact.
  • "Due to market and policy sensitivities, we do not intend to make public any further details on the size or composition of this increase."
  • NZDUSD sees little reaction to the announcement, at circa 0.65 for +0.25% on the day.
