Lower and Lower OCR

Gerald Mullaney

9 April 2025


The OCR, was again lowered today by 25 basis points, bringing the OCR to 3.50%. This indicates a slow as you go strategy taking no risks.


It is understandable that, the the reduction was not 50 basis points, as it looks like, the target for boom ahoy, 2026 on beyond is well on track.


Keeping a tight control on all things financial and keeping things on track and not allowing the market to escsalate is the strategy for this moment.
