在伊朗战事扩大导致能源成本上涨、可能加剧物价压力的背景下，澳大利亚央行周二连续第二次会议加息，加大应对顽固通胀的力度。

　　该行将现金利率从3.85%上调至4.1%，为2023年年中以来首度连续两次加息。政策声明称，由九名成员组成的政策委员会以五比四的投票结果决定收紧货币政策。行长Michele Bullock将于悉尼时间15：30举行新闻发布会。

　　“中东局势仍高度不确定，在多种情境下，都可能加剧全球及国内通胀，”声明表示。“有鉴于此，委员会认为通胀在一段时间内或维持在目标水平以上，且风险进一步偏向上行，包括通胀预期。”

　　政策决定公布后，澳大利亚国债延续涨势，澳元汇率下跌。3年期澳债收益率跌8个基点至4.51%，决议公布前报4.56%。澳元兑美元跌0.1%至0.7065，决议公布前报0.7083。

　　澳大利亚央行会议是本周八家主要央行议息会议中的第一场，正值中东冲突不断升级之际。美联储将于周三公布利率决定，日本央行将于周四宣布决议。
