BoE's MPC member Tenreyro: My most recent vote for more QE sought to guard against market dysfunction

  • We will assess vaccine news in next forecasts
  • Expects that main economic boost from progress on COVID-19 vaccines will only come when jabs are rolled out
  • BoE should prevent rising market interest rates from threatening the recovery
  • Some households may delay spending until vaccines are actually reducing health risks
  • Sees some reduction in uncertainty helping businesses due to vaccine
  • My rationale for recent QE expansion was to mitigate the risk of any tightening in monetary conditions that might make it harder to bring inflation back to 
  • My view is that the reduction in uncertainty about vaccine production, makes it even more essential that we avoid those risks
