What happened this quarter (three months to 30 September 2025)
In New Zealand, the Reserve Bank (RBNZ) lowered the Official Cash Rate (OCR) by 25 basis points to 3.00%, responding to a series of softer economic indicators. It later followed up with a further 50 basis point cut in early October. The RBNZ has indicated that additional rate reductions are likely by early 2026 as it aims to support growth and manage inflation.
These moves come amid signs of economic weakness. GDP contracted by 0.9% in the June quarter, the third decline in five quarters, while the unemployment rate rose to 5.2%.
Cash investments continued to deliver stable returns, offering capital preservation during uncertain times.
