An inner-Brisbane house has been gutted by fire overnight, but firefighters managed to protect neighbouring properties and all four occupants of the home escaped with minor injuries.

Several triple-zero calls were made in relation to the Plunkett Street home in Paddington going up in flames and emergency services were dispatched to the scene about 3.40am.

A Brisbane family has run for their lives after a huge fire tore through their Paddington home early this morning.

A QFES spokeswoman said 12 crews battled the blaze, with police evacuating neighbouring properties as firefighters took up defensive positions to stop the flames from spreading.

Paramedics took four people, reportedly occupants of the home, to the Royal Brisbane and Women’s Hospital. One suffered minor burns to their arms and the others were treated for smoke inhalation.

Police said the fire was being treated as non-suspicious and the fire service could not provide more details about what the exact cause may have been.

In a separate incident, fire destroyed a gym and damaged neighbouring real estate and healthcare businesses on the Gold Coast.

The blaze broke out about 4.20am on Saturday at Pacific Pines, with residents in nearby townhouses having to be evacuated until it was brought under control.

No one was injured but police said the fire was being treated as suspicious and have set up a crime scene while investigations continue.

Bank of Russia keeps key rate at 7.25%

MOSCOW, June 15. /TASS/. The Bank of Russia has maintained the key rate at the level of 7.25% following the government’s decision to raise the VAT and the growth in gasoline prices outstripping inflation in May.

“The Bank of Russia has reviewed the inflation forecast upwards considering the planned increase of the value added tax in 2019. This measure will influence the next year consumer prices dynamics and may affect this year’s dynamics as well,” the regulator said in a press release.

“The balance of risks up to the end of 2019 has shifted towards proinflationary risks. In making its key rate decisions the Bank of Russia will assess inflation risks, inflation dynamics and economic developments against the forecast,” according to the press release.

The ruble slightly slowed down the decline against the dollar and the euro after the decision of the Central Bank to keep the key rate at the level of 7.25% per annum.

Thus, the dollar fell to 62.7 rubles, the euro fell to 72.72 rubles after the decision was published.

Accelerated yield growth in advanced economies and geopolitical factors can cause volatility in financial markets and influence inflation expectations. “With respect to external conditions accelerated yield growth in advanced economies and geopolitical factors may cause surges in volatility in financial markets and affect expectations for the exchange rate and inflation,” the regulator said.

Annual inflation

The Bank of Russia forecasts annual inflation of 3.5-4% at the end of 2018 and its short-term increase to 4-4.5% in 2019.

“The Bank of Russia forecasts annual inflation to be 3.5-4% in late 2018 and increase for a short-term period to 4-4.5% in 2019. The consumer price growth rate will return to 4% in early 2020,” according to the press release.

The regulator noted that annual inflation in general corresponds to the Bank of Russia’s expectations. “In April and May, the annual consumer price growth rate remained at the March level totalling 2.4%,” according to the press release.

The Russian Central Bank assesses believes it is necessary to slow down transition to a neutral monetary policy due to the impact of the proposed fiscal measures on inflation.

“Taking into account the impact of the suggested fiscal measures on inflation and inflation expectations, the transition to neutral monetary policy needs to be slower. Keeping somewhat tight monetary conditions allows to limit the scale of secondary effects arising from the tax policy decisions and stabilize annual inflation close to 4%,” the regulator said.

GDP growth

The Bank of Russia in the medium term expects a faster growth of the Russian economy in case of successful implementation of the planned fiscal measures.

At the same time, according to the forecast of the Central Bank, Russia’s GDP growth in 2018 will be 1.5-2%, and in 2019-2020 the economic growth rates will remain around these levels.

“The Bank of Russia’s forecast might be further updated to reflect a detailed estimate of influence that the set of fiscal measures, announced on 14 June 2018, will have on economic performance. Although in the medium term if the scheduled measures are successfully implemented the expected economic growth could be faster compared to the Bank of Russia’s baseline forecast,” the regulator said.
