The Australian dollar weakened against the other major currencies in the Asian session on Tuesday after the minutes of the Reserve Bank of Australia March monetary policy meeting signaled the possibility of cutting the benchmark interest rate again.
The members of the RBA monetary policy board decided finally to take no action in order to give the economy more time to adjust to the 25-basis point rate cut implemented in February, the minute showed.
The bank said that it was appropriate to hold rates steady after easing in the previous month and said that the board will asses the need for further easing at forthcoming meetings, to foster sustainable growth in demand and to reach the inflation target.
“Members saw benefit in allowing some time for the structure of interest rates and the economy to adjust to the earlier change. They also saw advantages in receiving more data to indicate whether or not the economy was on the previously forecast path,” the minutes said.
At the meeting, the central bank kept its benchmark interest rate steady at 2.25 percent.
