How much pain will the Official Cash Rate hike cause?
The Front Page - A podcast by NZ Herald
The Reserve Bank has hiked the Official Cash Rate to 5.25%, surprising many economists, politicians and journalists with the increase.

And where does this leave politicians? Today, NZ Herald business editor at large and host of the Money Talks podcast, Liam Dann, joins Georgina Campbell (On the Tiles - Local Edition) to analyse the country’s latest monetary policy moves.
