Floating or Falling? What Moves the Australian Dollar

Ever wondered why the value of the Australian dollar rises and falls?

We also explore the role of the Reserve Bank of Australia in stabilizing the currency when markets go off track. Tune in to get a clearer picture of how global forces shape the Aussie dollar and what it means for the economy.
