Vittoria Shortt: ASB Chief Executive on the OCR dropping by 50 basis points - The Mike Hosking Breakfast

Kiwis could expect another cut to the Official Cash Rate before Christmas. 

The Reserve Bank has cut the OCR by 50 basis points, following a 25-basis point cut in August. 

Banks are following through with further interest rate cuts. 

ASB Chief Executive Vittoria Shortt told Mike Hosking the neutral rate is about 3.25%, so the central bank still has a way to go. 

She says it could drop another 50 basis points next month, provided inflation is back under control.
