The physical bank bill rate lost 1bp to 1.69% as did 3 month BBSW.
Government bond yields fell at the short end, while longer-dated yields generally held steady. The swap curve acted in a similar manner; The 1 year rate declined by 3bps to 1.78%, the 3 year swap fell by 7bps to 2.10%, 5 year swaps lost 5bps to 2.51% while the 10 year swap rate added 1bp to 2.95% and the 15 year rate increased by 3bps to 3.19%.
(N.B. rounding has made some movements and rates appear to be inconsistent with the previous week.)
As a result swap-to-bond spreads were almost unchanged. The 3 year spread was steady at 5bps while both the 5 year and 10 year spreads each added 1bp to 25bps and 17bps respectively.
