In the United Kingdom, benchmark interest rate is set by the Monetary Policy Committee (MPC). The Bank of England official interest rate is the repo rate. This repo rate applies to open market operations of the Bank of England with a group of counterparties (banks, building societies, securities firms).
Latest Updates
The Bank of England's Monetary Policy Committee voted by a majority of 7-2 to hold Bank Rate at 0.75 percent during its December meeting, as policymakers took a wait-and-see approach following Prime Minister Boris Johnson's election victory and its possible implications on Brexit. Two members have voted for a second month in a row for a rate cut amid concerns about the job market.
