Amelia Harris

Amelia Harris is an Australian economic writer known for turning complex market stories into clear, practical coverage for readers. She began her reporting career at a regional newsroom in New South Wales, covering banking services, cost-of-living trends, and state budget impacts before moving to national economics desks. Over the past decade, Amelia has written extensively on interest rates, household debt, wages growth, and productivity, drawing on interviews with economists, union representatives, and senior executives. Her work has been shaped by a decade-long beat that includes corporate earnings analysis and policy reporting, with a particular focus on how economic decisions land in everyday life. Amelia has been recognised for consistently accurate explanations during major policy shifts and for leading projects that translated official data into accessible graphics and briefings. Today, she contributes regular analysis and long-form features that connect macroeconomic indicators to the choices businesses and households make in Australia’s changing economy.
