Australia's central bank left its key interest rate and the government bond yield target unchanged, as widely expected, as it is set to review the asset purchase programme at the July meeting.
The policy board of the Reserve Bank of Australia headed by Governor Philip Lowe decided to leave its cash rate unchanged at a record low of 0.10 percent.
The central bank retained the target yield on the 3-year Australian government bond at around 0.1 percent and also maintained the parameters of the Term Funding Facility and the government bond purchase programme.
