The Reserve Bank of Australia (RBA) will hold a meeting and announce changes to the monetary policy on August 3, at 07:30 MT time (GMT+3). While we don’t expect any changes to the interest rate that is currently held at 0.1%, the statement itself may be interesting. The main focus will be on the yearly outlook by the bank given surging inflation (3.8% in the 2^nd quarter) and the coronavirus situation in Australia.
