Progress on underlying disinflation continues, supported by the still restrictive stance of monetary policy. This is reflected in an easing of pay growth and services price inflation. Underlying disinflation is being underpinned by subdued economic growth and building slack in the labour market. Monetary policy is being set to balance the risks around meeting the 2% inflation ...

Bank of England keeps key interest rate unchanged at 4% as inflation remains markedly above target
The Bank of England has kept its main interest rate unchanged at 4% as inflation in the U.K. remains markedly above target and policymakers await this month’s budget from the U.K. government, which could be one of the most consequential in years. Thursday’s decision by the nine-member rate-setting body was widely anticipated, though some economists thought there was a chance that borrowing rates would be reduced by a further quarter of a percentage point. The vote was tight though, with five voting for unchanged rates and four backing a cut. “We still think rates are on a gradual path downwards, but we need to ... (full story)

Progress on underlying disinflation continues, supported by the still restrictive stance of monetary policy. This is reflected in an easing of pay growth and services price inflation. Underlying disinflation is being underpinned by subdued economic growth and building slack in the labour market. Monetary policy is being set to balance the risks around meeting the 2% inflation target sustainably. The risk from greater inflation persistence has become less pronounced recently, and the risk to medium-term inflation from weaker demand more apparent, such that overall the risks are now more balanced. But more evidence is needed on both. The restrictiveness of monetary policy has fallen as Bank Rate has been reduced.
