SYDNEY - Australian Prime Minister Scott Morrison meet with the country’s central bank chief on Wednesday to discuss the nation’s slowing economy as pressure grows for urgent fiscal stimulus.

Lowe on Tuesday said the RBA was considering cutting interest rates, the first cut in three years, to stimulate an economy slowing due to sluggish consumer spending and with lukewarm inflation. The RBA last eased policy to a record low 1.50% in August 2016. Australia’s domestic activity likely slowed in the three-months ended March to an annual 1.7%, the weakest since the 2008 global financial crisis.
