What Drives Bond Yields - EXCLUSIVE Members webinar - ONLINE ONLY

Event Type: ESA Event

Date: Thursday Apr 3, 2025, 12:30 pm

While central banks around the world – including most recently here in Australia – have been cutting interest rates, there is so much more that affects the longer-term  cost of capital for governments than just the overnight policy rate.
 
Last year, QTC Chief Economist Michael Anthonisz released a six-part series on the drivers of government bond yields (available here). In this webinar for members of the Economic Society of Australia (Queensland), Mr Anthonisz will provide an overview of what drives movements in bond yields, examine trends in the sub-components which make up bond yields and what could drive movements in these sub-components. He will also provide topical examples – focussed on equilibrium interest rates and US public debt – of factors which could impact these as well as presenting some long-term projections for Australian and US Government yields.
 
This is a session not to be missed for those looking to build a deeper understanding of what sort of factors can influence government borrowing costs.
