Key Quotes
“We do not expect any policy changes - hence, the interesting part will be the policy stance after the neutral stance was maintained but included a hawkish twist at the latest meeting. We expect the BoE to remove this hawkish twist again as GDP growth slowed to 0.3% q/q against its nowcast of 0.6%.”
