The Forward View from NAB Group Economics forecasts that Australia’s real GDP growth will “slow to below 1.0% over the next two years. This includes some very soft quarterly growth in the back end of 2023 and is well below trend growth of around 2.25-2.5%”.
This forecast is based on an expected peak in the official cash rate of 3.60% by March 2023, “with the RBA holding rates at that level until early 2024”.
