UK Drop-In: Bank of England March meeting preview – Rate cuts after the energy shock

Speakers:

Uncertainty around the duration of the conflict in the Middle East is keeping energy prices near multi-year highs and threatening expectations that the Bank of England will continue cutting rates this year. But how far has the spike in energy prices shifted the calculus for the Bank?

Join our UK economists at 11:00 ET / 15:00 GMT on Thursday 12th March for this special preview of the March meeting and an update on the UK macroeconomic and policy outlook. During this 20-minute session, the team will answer your questions as they address key issues, including:

  • The risks to our 2026 Bank Rate forecasts in light of the conflict
  • Why the Bank of England may be more sensitive to energy price moves than many of its peers
  • The outlook for gilts and sterling amid geopolitical volatility
