Key quotes

“We maintain our forecast of a 75 bps hike on the way to a peak of 4.5% at the March 2023 meeting.“

“Now that the markets have settled down and pension funds seem to have weathered their collateral problems after the Bank’s successful intervention, it looks likely that active gilt sales will commence, as twice rescheduled, on 1 November.”
