Description: The Reserve Bank of Australia (RBA) has lifted the cash rate by 25 basis points at its latest meeting, signalling the start of a more prolonged tightening cycle.

His modelling and economic analysis suggest the real requirement is at least four rate hikes before inflation begins to ease.
