The Reserve Bank of Australia (RBA) is set to conclude its monetary policy meeting on Tuesday, where it is anticipated to maintain the benchmark lending rate at 4.35 percent. This decision comes amidst a relatively light day for economic activities in the Asia-Pacific region.
In addition to the RBA's announcement, Australia will release the June figures for building approvals. Forecasts indicate a potential decline of 6.5 percent month-on-month, contrasting with a 5.5 percent increase observed in May.
Japan is expected to release the June data for household spending. Projections suggest a slight increase of 0.2 percent on a monthly basis, and a reduction of 0.9 percent year-over-year. This follows a 0.3 percent decline from the previous month and a 1.8 percent annual decrease recorded in May.
Meanwhile, Taiwan will reveal the consumer price index (CPI) data for July. The previous month saw a CPI rise of 0.26 percent on a monthly basis and 2.42 percent compared to the same month last year.
