Institution: AUD/NZD may rebound in the coming months. Jane Foley, foreign exchange strategist of ABN amro, said in a report that AUD/NZD may rebound in the coming months, because the growth momentum of New Zealand's economy is far less than that of Australia.

The Reserve Bank of Australia kept interest rates unchanged on Tuesday.
