making sense of australia's shifting economy

Following our recent economic update with the Prime Minister (in collaboration with Sky News and The Australian), where our CEOs heard from Andrew Hauser, Deputy Governor of the Reserve Bank of Australia - we're going deeper.

Join us for an intimate CEO Special with Sarah Hunter, Assistant Governor and Chief Economist at the Reserve Bank of Australia, for a candid conversation on what's ahead for the Australian economy.

Rates remain elevated. Cost-of-living pressure keeps weighing on consumers and business. Global uncertainty, tariff negotiations and geopolitical instability are reshaping the conditions you're leading in. The path ahead demands clear thinking, and this is a room built for exactly that.
