BoE Holds Rates
The BoE's Monetary Policy Committee voted unanimously to hold the Bank Rate at 0.75% during its March meeting and reaffirmed its pledge to gradual and limited rate rises over the forecast period, despite persistent concerns about Brexit. Policymakers noted that softening in global GDP and trade growth has continued, while CPI inflation is set to remain close to the 2% target over the coming months.
