BOE) policymaker Saunders: BoE's next move could 'quite plausibly' be a cut even if no-deal Brexit is avoided

  • Rates could go either way after Brexit

  • Brexit uncertainties are a slow puncture for the UK economy

  • The UK economy has weakened markedly, opening up modest amount of spare capacity.

  • Persistently high Brexit uncertainty now looks most likely outcome for the UK, even without a no-deal Brexit.

  • Risks to global economy are tilted towards further disappointment.

  • Limited and gradual rate rises needed if global growth recovers and Brexit uncertainty falls significantly.

  • Cost of changing policy course if Brexit outcomes change is probably quite low.

  • Deferring monetary policy changes until after Brexit outcomes clear could lead to inappropriate policy.


GBP falls on dovish remarks from Saunders, sending GBP/USD back below the 1.23 handle.
