• The BoE held rates today, with Greene joining Pill in dissenting hawkishly for a 25bp hike. Aside from that additional

dissent, the overall message from the statement and individual members’ paragraphs was that further evidence of

disinflation has bought more time for the committee to wait and assess the risk of second-round effects and inflation

effects into core and wages. If a range of other central banks tighten due to a mix of resilience in the global growth outlook

and inflation concerns, we doubt the BoE would sit and hold.
