About this indicator
- What it measures
- The difference between nominal and inflation-indexed 10-year Australian Government bond yields.
- How it is calculated
- Calculated by the RBA and published quarterly in table G3.
- How to read it
- Readings near 2.5% are consistent with investors expecting inflation to stay in the RBA's target band over ten years.
- Caveats
- Market pricing, not a forecast: it includes risk and liquidity premiums, and Australia's indexed bond market is small.
- Frequency
- Quarterly
- Typical release
- Quarterly in RBA table G3.
