Show Notes

The Reserve Bank is tipped to keep the Official Cash Rate unchanged at 5.5% when it comes up for review this afternoon. 

Westpac's Kelly Eckhold told Kate Hawkesby that a change is unlikely so close to an election. 

However, she said, the markets are looking at a 50-60% rate increase in November, earlier than the Reserve Bank had previously indicated.
