Episode Details

China’s economy grew 4.5% in the third quarter, supported by strong exports, but weak domestic demand continues to raise questions about the sustainability of its recovery. Meanwhile, Australia’s cooling labour market is complicating the outlook for interest rates, Japan faces surging bond yields and a weakening yen, and Indonesia must balance currency pressures with concerns over its equity market. As economic conditions diverge across Asia, we examine whether central banks are heading in increasingly different directions and what that could mean for regional equities, bonds and currencies.
