Fiscal policy and interest rates in Australia (journal article)
by Stephen Kirchner
from Policy, Vol. 23 No. 3, Spring 2007, pp. 11-15
"The article focuses on the significance of fiscal policy to the interest rates in Australia. The international influences on Australian interest rates are largely relative to domestic implications. Its interest rates are mostly determined by international and cyclical influences which will be expected to overwhelm any contribution from changes in the federal budget balance and national saving."
