About this episode

The episode discusses the easing of Australian GDP growth and features an interview with ANZ’s Chief Economist on the Philippines' economic challenges.

Australian GDP growth is set to ease in the March quarter, which could take further pressure off the RBA and the currency. House prices fell in May, while building approvals fell in April. And Korea’s inflation jumps. In our deep-dive interview, ANZ’s Chief Economist for Southeast Asia and India, Sanjay Mathur, looks at how the Philippines is dealing with its twin current account and budget deficits.
