Coming up soon – Reserve Bank of Australia official speaking

David Jacobs is Head of Domestic Markets at the RBA. He will be speaking to the Australian Government Fixed Income Forum, Tokyo.

I haven’t seen a topic listed, but I’d suggest its worth being aware of this and potential headlines. Japanese are big investors in Australian fixed income. The potential for policy change from the Bank of Japan, something that market chatter won‘t let go of despite indications from Bank of Japan Governor Ueda that policy is steady for now, could prompt yen repatriation, and selling of Oz bonds.
