Bank of England governor BAILEY said he did not think the Bank had acted too late.

IG Group chief market analyst Chris Beauchamp said markets have largely priced in a Bank of England hike, shifting focus to MPC voting splits and whether the move is a one‑off or the start of a new tightening cycle. Traders will scrutinize revised inflation and growth forecasts, particularly the BoE’s assessment of the persistence of the energy shock and whether it acknowledges the growth cost of further tightening. With the ECB, Fed and RBNZ holding rates steady recently, a BoE hike would make its stance relatively more hawkish.
