official cash rate
Definition
The interest rate paid by banks who borrow money from the central bank through the overnight money market in New Zealand and Australia. Since banks frequently borrow money from the central bank to maintain regulated cash reserves, the central bank can adjust interest rates in the national economy by modifying the official cash rate.
