The Bank of England defied market expectations by keeping interest rates unchanged and placing concerns about slowing growth above expectations of higher inflation, Bloomberg News reported yesterday.
Policymakers, led by Governor Andrew Bailey, voted 7 to 2, to keep the benchmark lending rate at 0.1%, and 6 to 3 to maintain the bond-buying target.
Officials also opposed market pricing for a series of hikes to 1% next year, noting that the path would leave inflation below target at the end of their forecast period.
