How to interpret the AUD benchmark
RBA cash rate target is the selected benchmark for Reserve Bank of Australia. Traders monitor Australian labour-market data, quarterly inflation and RBA assessments. Its nominal rate is not by itself a price forecast for AUD or a brokerage swap quote.
For the underlying definitions and policy-gap calculations, see TRADE90 methodology.
