Talk:Reserve Bank of Australia

message: We need a criticism section (similar to the page on the American Federal Reserve Bank). In light of recent books such as The Evil Princes of Martin Place: The Reserve Bank of Australia, the Global Financial Crisis and the Threat to Australians' Liberty and Prosperity, which criticise the RBA and its role in causing the financial crisis. See also opinion articles at La.org.au which criticize central banking.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by Mookrit (talk • contribs) 13:38, 19 June 2011 (UTC)

thread_title: Criticism Section

message: I suggest that the article Governor of the Reserve Bank of Australia into the Governors section of this article.  The other article merely duplicates the information already in the main article.  Kelvin 09:15, 14 April 2007 (UTC)

thread_title:  Merge from [[Governor of the Reserve Bank of Australia]] 

message: Two days ago we were surprised that the RBA is gettiing 8.8 billion $ in cash from the Federal Government, which is more than 4 times as much as the quoted 1.91 that that they previously held. This is to cover for risk exposure from Europe and the US, they said. Naturally, one starts asking, what risk exposure does Australia have to dicey assetts? Did we not have 5 years since the crisis started to get rid of dicey assetts? Which assetts exactly does the RBA normally have - and why do they have assetts which expose them/all of us to risk? Why are these assetts a secret, when all of Australia has to borrow 8.8 billion $ to cover the Reserve Bank? We have been told for years that going into debt is wrong - but now we have no trouble getting into debt, and pay interest for years for assetts that they must have known for 5 years are dicey. 
When someone ends up footing the bill (like all of us) it is usually good manners to inform those affected what happens and why. 144.136.192.18 (talk) 02:13, 25 October 2013 (UTC)

message: There needs to be a section that provides details that a layperson can understand about the function of the Reserve Bank. For example - it should be conveyed to the layperson whether or not the Reserve Bank is like a regular bank that serves the general public, such as Westpac Bank, Commonwealth Bank etc. KorgBoy (talk) 22:50, 11 March 2020 (UTC)
