This market will resolve according to the change in basis points in the official cash rate (OCR) resulting from the October 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 October 2026 meeting, scheduled for October 28, 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 October 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.Recent inflation at 4.1% annual in the June 2026 quarter, driven by fuel price surges from Middle East developments, prompted the Reserve Bank of New Zealand to raise the Official Cash Rate by 25 basis points to 2.75% in its September Monetary Policy Statement. Governor Anna Breman’s September 22 remarks highlighted risks that persistent oil prices could push near-term inflation above prior forecasts, supporting trader expectations for further tightening at the October 28 Monetary Policy Review. At the same time, the central bank’s emphasis on assessing the effects of recent stimulus removal and the uneven economic recovery has kept a meaningful probability on a hold, as markets balance medium-term inflation risks against data dependence ahead of key releases like third-quarter CPI.
