Is this a short answer question? If so,
I would define external stability (the ability of Australia to meet its foreign debt and equity servicing obligations)
Explain the types of Causes - Cyclical (Exchange rates/international competitiveness interest rates etc.) and Structural (savings and investment gap = high foreign investment = debt and equity servicing costs on NPI, narrow export base etc.)
Explain the Effects and make a judgement on its significance: tarnished triple A credit rating = less investment (maybe mention pitchford thesis) = less economic growth and due to lack of investment to fund businesses etc.
Hope this helps a little!

I need help on answering this question?

Discuss how a change in Australia's terms of trade can influence the exchange rate and international competitiveness.

violet123:
How do I calculate GDP growth when I am given CPI and nominal GDP?
An example of such question is in the 2018 HSC paper in the short answers

Hey Ppl,

In my text book it states "The RBA seeks to maintain the longer-term stability of the financial system by avoiding financial crises. This protects the deposits of members of the public, without actually providing a formal guarantee for depositors' funds

Can some1 explain this in layman's terms please!?
