This market will resolve according to the change in basis points in the official cash rate (OCR) resulting from the December 2026 meeting of the Reserve Bank of New Zealand, relative to the level it was prior to this meeting. The resolution source will be official information from the Reserve Bank of New Zealand, including the statement or release from its December 2026 meeting, scheduled for December 9, 2026, as listed on the official RBNZ calendar (https://www.rbnz.govt.nz/news-and-events/events). This market may resolve as soon as the statement or release of the Reserve Bank of New Zealand resulting from its December 2026 meeting with relevant data is issued. If the specified rate is defined by an upper and lower bound, the relevant change will be the change to the upper bound. If the specified rate is changed to a level not expressed in the displayed options, the change will be rounded according to the following guidelines. Increases or decreases of less than 25 bps will be rounded to 25 bps (e.g. an increase or decrease of 10 bps would be considered to be an increase or decrease of 25 bps). Increases or decreases of greater than 25 bps will be rounded to the nearest 25 bps and will be rounded away from 0 in cases of equidistance (e.g., an increase or decrease of 37.5 bps would be considered to be an increase or decrease of 50 bps). Displayed options of “Increase” or “Decrease” will include policy rate increases or decreases of any size. If the specified meeting is postponed to a date and time before the start of the next scheduled meeting, this market will resolve based on the outcome of that postponed meeting. If the specified meeting is cancelled, or postponed such that no decision is announced by the start of the next scheduled meeting, this market will resolve to the “No Change” bracket. Emergency changes to the specified rate not resulting from the specified meeting will not be considered.**Reserve Bank of New Zealand traders price an 85.5% probability of a 25 basis point Official Cash Rate hike at the December 9 Monetary Policy Statement, reflecting the central bank's September 2 decision to lift the OCR to 2.75% for the second consecutive meeting.** Elevated June-quarter CPI at 4.1%—driven by Middle East-related fuel prices—has kept headline inflation above the 1-3% target, while core measures and inflation expectations remain consistent with a return to the 2% midpoint by late 2027. Recent Q2 GDP growth of 0.2% quarter-on-quarter (beating forecasts) and a 5.6% unemployment rate signal a resilient recovery that supports gradual tightening without derailing activity. Markets view the December MPS as the likely venue for the final 25bp move to around 3.0%, consistent with the RBNZ's updated projections and ASX futures-implied paths, though global energy volatility and growth risks could still influence the October 28 interim review.
