Full explanation

RBA governor speeches are not policy decisions, but they can explain the central bank's current assessment of the economy and risks around the outlook.

Why traders watch it

Comments from the RBA governor can move AUD, bond yields and rate futures if they shift expectations for future cash-rate decisions.

Stronger vs weaker outcomes

Remarks that emphasize inflation risks or insufficient policy restraint may be read as hawkish, while remarks emphasizing weaker demand, labour-market easing or downside growth risks may be read as dovish. The impact depends on how the remarks compare with market expectations.

Typical volatility

Speeches can be nuanced and are often context-setting rather than immediate policy guidance; later data and formal Board decisions can override the signal.
