Consumers over spending with credit cards, I would say you are spot on with your analyst. In the US the economy is based in part with how much we can consume, with credit now so tight recovery will be long and slow.

The example is based on a fixed level of risk, and is independent of the yield curve – as that is merely based on expectations anyways.

The key additional issue is regarding the composition of risk. Now I think even this is a relative small issue.

The main claim I hear is that as the domestic interest rate increases, foreign lenders are willing to invest in more risky domestic assests. However, this “interest rate” they are discussing is the risk free rate – and if the risk free return is rising why would the supplier of credit want to take on more risk for less additional return?

The issue stems from the demand side. If an increase in the OCR mainly convinces low risk borrowers to pull out of the market, the composition of lending becomes more risky.

Your example is based around no risk and a single time period (a day, since you’re talking about the OCR). Once you introduce ideas like yield curves and term risk premia, then no amount of semaphoring will help to make things clearer.
