Despite a tempered speech today, Bollard, Governor of New Zealands Reserve Bank, the New Zealand Herald report he has a tricky time ahead of him balancing the nations economy: “The central bank will have to walk a fine line over stoking economic activity without over-egging it as inflation begins to speed up ahead of Bollard's expectations and the housing market continues to show signs of emerging from the lethargy of the past 18 months.”
