Commonwealth Bank economists expect the RBA to raise its cash rate by 0.25 percentage points to 4.85% in November 2026.
The revised forecast reflects RBA warnings of higher inflation, driven by energy costs and tighter domestic capacity.
Higher rates are expected to weaken growth, soften home prices and push unemployment above previous forecasts.
Following a November increase, the RBA is expected to hold rates steady in December and February while assessing economic conditions.
Rate cuts are forecast for August and November 2027, conditional on sufficient inflation progress.
