Bank of England hold interest rate at 5% - 19th September 2024

The Bank of England has held interest rates at 5% following its cut last month, with forecasters predicting a further drop by the end of the year. The Bank of England’s governor, Andrew Bailey said: ‘Inflationary pressures have continued to ease since we cut interest rates in August. The economy has been evolving broadly as we expected. If that continues we should be able to reduce rates gradually over time but it is vital that inflation stays low, so we need to be careful not to cut too fast or by too much’.

UK inflation stuck at 2.2% in August, above the Bank’s 2% target, with a rise in both core inflation and services inflation.
