Australia’s central bank raised its policy rate to 4.85% as expected, but removed language signaling possible further hikes, reducing market expectations for additional tightening and weighing on the Australian dollar. New Zealand’s close election could affect expectations for the central bank’s policy objectives, while the United States notified South Africa that it plans to remove the country from AGOA from January 1, 2027, threatening its duty-free access to the US market.
