  Treasurer Jim Chalmers' overhaul of the Reserve Bank board is complete, with six people appointed to help run the bank and set interest rates.

The article from The Sydney Morning Herald discusses a significant overhaul of the Reserve Bank of Australia (RBA), marking the most substantial changes in its 64-year history. Treasurer Jim Chalmers has announced a comprehensive review of the RBA's operations, focusing on its monetary policy framework, governance, and decision-making processes. Key points include the potential for more frequent interest rate adjustments, a shift towards a more transparent and accountable decision-making process, and the introduction of a dual mandate to balance inflation control with employment objectives. The review, led by an independent panel, aims to modernize the RBA to better navigate contemporary economic challenges, including low inflation, wage stagnation, and global economic uncertainties. This shake-up is seen as a response to criticisms regarding the RBA's past performance and its ability to adapt to a rapidly changing economic landscape.
