| Summary: | In this study, Australia's economic performance from the onset of the global financial crisis is discussed. A healthy banking system, flexible exchange rate, and robust demand for commodities from Asia are important for good performance.

The importance of tax and structural reforms is emphasized. The Australian Prudential Regulation Authority's plans are used to undertake stress tests incorporating disruptions to funding markets. |
