Description

Shows a New Zealand car with an anxious kiwi staring out of the back window. Allan Bollard, chief of the Reserve Bank, holds a cushion that is labelled 'lower OCR' in front of a target that is painted on a brick wall. The target represents the 'economic crunch' and the car is about to crash into it. The kiwi is thinking 'Official "crash" rate'? Refers to the fact that Allan Bollard has lowered the OCR (official cash rate) to try to moderate the impact of the global financial crisis.
