Varoufakis says Australia's rate rise is the wrong medicine
Original: Australia’s interest rate rise is the wrong medicine and an even worse alibi | Yanis Varoufakis
Former Greek finance minister Yanis Varoufakis argues in the Guardian that Australia's latest interest rate rise is both misguided policy and a convenient excuse. He contends higher rates are the wrong tool for the country's economic problems and serve as an alibi for deeper structural failures. His intervention adds a critical voice to the debate over the Reserve Bank's tightening cycle and its impact on mortgage holders.
Why now: A high-profile economist publicly attacking Australia's monetary policy is sparking debate over the Reserve Bank's rate rise.
