Samenvatting:The Article IV Consultation discusses that recently a commodity price boom, driven by robust global demand, has pushed the Australian economy up against capacity constraints. Banks are adjusting the structure of their funding in response to the turmoil, increasing liquidity, and lengthening the maturity of their funding.

They encouraged the authorities to take advantage of the positive macroeconomic performance to advance structural reforms.
