BoE's MPC member Saunders: Question of whether to curtail our current asset purchase program early will be under consideration at our forthcoming meetings

  • Activity seems to have recovered a bit faster than May forecast
  • Risks lie on the side that output gap will close earlier than previously expected
  • It may become appropriate fairly soon to withdraw some stimulus
  • Options to withdraw stimulus include curtailing QE (ending it in the next month or two) and/or further policy action next year
  • If bank rate does rise in the next year or so, it is likely that any rise would be relatively limited
