Abstract

This paper utilizes daily data from the period of the ‘clean’ float of the Australian dollar to consider the relationship between two key Australian short‐term interest rates: the official and the unofficial overnight cash rates. There is a stable long‐run differential of I per cent between the two rates and a short‐run dynamic policy reaction function is found which indicates that the official rate reacted to the size of the past interest rate differential.
