central bank on Friday. The Reserve Bank of Australia said the
economic growth outlook for China and emerging economies has deteriorated while domestic conditions in housing pose higher risks in its Financial Stability Review released on Friday.
"The focus of global financial stability has been shifting to emerging-market economies and their potential to contribute to destabilizing adjustments in financial markets," the RBA said. The growth outlook for China and other emerging-market economies has deteriorated. "In addition lower commodity prices, fiscal pressure and political instability are compounding the situation in some cases," the RBA said.
