The corporate earnings season in Australia will pick up pace this week, with global miner BHP Group BHP.AX, gas producer Santos STO.AX and biotech firm CSL Ltd CSL.AX reporting their full-year results. Westpac Banking Corp WBC.AX, Australia's third-largest mortgage lender, said its bad debt fell to a multi-year low in the June quarter. All eyes are on the Reserve Bank of New Zealand's policy meeting on Wednesday, with markets expecting a fourth straight half-point rate hike to contain soaring inflation.
