ACE 2025 was held in Sydney from 6-9 July 2025. Economics is essential to many of the pressing issues of our time including climate and the energy transition, aging population, inequality, geoeconomic competition, resource management and circular economy, healthcare, water and food security, poverty employment and livelihoods. It is with this in mind that Australian Conference of Economists (ACE) 2025 explored Economics for a Changing World, illustrating the practical and solution focused contribution of economics to these challenges. An acceleration in the availability, use and scale of data and experimental techniques has transformed our approach to these challenges.

The Reserve Bank has been releasing a large volume of digitised archival records to the public through our digital archive (called Unreserved). These records span nearly 200 years of Australia’s economic, financial and social history. The latest release includes records about the work and influence of Dr HC Coombs along with additional records from the Bank’s Research Department, with much of the new information covering the period from the Bank’s ‘separation’ from the original Commonwealth Bank in 1960 through to the early 1970s.
