Governor Lowe has agreed to take questions from the floor.
NAB is hosting this event by way of generous support for The Anika Foundation.
Since 2006 The Anika Foundation has presented an annual fundraising event, attended mainly by organisations and individuals engaged in the financial services sector. Every one of these events has included a briefing by the Governor of the Reserve Bank. All funds raised go directly to the Foundation in support of its work to understand and improve mental health in young people.
The Anika Foundation
The Anika Foundation was established in 2005 to raise funds in support of research into adolescent depression and suicide, which have become amongst the most significant (but least well considered) medical and social problems of our time. The Anika Foundation is governed by a Board comprising Dr Adrian Blundell-Wignall, Dr Philip Lowe, Mr Glenn Stevens, Ms Michelle Tye, Mr Crispin Murray, Mr Paul Brennan, Professor Philip Mitchell, Ms Danae Blundell-Wignall, Mr Tate Dogan. Funds are raised for an endowment that is invested by professional fund managers working on a completely voluntary basis. Income from the fund is used to support academic research and community and school initiatives in the area of adolescent depression and suicide. The Anika Foundation provides an opportunity for corporate Australia to make a difference in an area that affects at least one in four families. All donations are tax deductible.
