For the first time in 3 years, the Reserve Bank of New Zealand raised interest rates by 25bp to 2.75%. While the decision was widely expected, the New Zealand dollar still traded sharply higher because the central bank raised its inflation and growth forecasts and said rates will rise by 2% over the next 2 years.
