Show Notes

Michele Bullock, an RBA employee for nearly 40 years, was announced on Friday as the new Reserve Bank of Australia Governor, taking over from Phillip Lowe, whose reputation has taken a blow over promises on interest rate rises that left many scrambling when they occurred earlier than expected.
