Each quarterly Monetary Policy Statement we release includes our projections (or forecasts) for the future. These forecasts paint a picture of where our economists think New Zealand's economy, labour market, inflation and interest rates are heading over the next few years.
The projections help explain what we think is happening within New Zealand's economy and the economic risks that may be ahead. They provide policymakers, businesses and households with an economic sketch of the forces likely to shape the future economic environment.
