Stephen Koukoulas’ latest market update examines a more subdued economic backdrop, with the RBA holding rates steady while rising unemployment, softer household spending and weaker house prices begin to offset persistent inflation pressures.

Australia’s private credit market is now over $200 billion and projected to surpass the Australian bond market by 2029.
This growth reflects a broader shift:

• Investors are prioritising stable, income-generating returns
• Traditional asset classes are being reassessed
• Capital is moving towards strategies with stronger risk-adjusted outcomes

In this latest interview with ausbiz, Zagga Executive Director, Tom Cranfield speaks to Nadine Blayney about how these trend, combined with policy changes and growing offshore demand, are reshaping the investment landscape.

The Australian economy is showing signs of moderation — but not contraction.

In his June 'Two Minutes for Zagga' update, Stephen Koukoulas, Zagga’s Economist-in-Residence, highlights a softening in household spending, easing housing price growth, and continued pressure from higher interest rates and fuel costs. Confidence remains subdued, influencing decision‑making across the economy.

However, strength in business investment, construction activity, and exports continues to support overall growth. With the Reserve Bank expected to hold rates steady in the near term, attention remains on how these dynamics evolve.

The takeaway?
The demand for real estate exposure is structural - but the delivery mechanism is changing.
