The Bank of England appears set to delay an interest rate cut that was expected before the Middle East conflict. On Thursday, the bank seemed unlikely to reduce rates soon.
The central bank is expected to issue vague statements about its next steps. It will wait to assess the extent of inflationary effects caused by the conflict.
The bank’s approach highlights caution as it observes economic developments. The impact of the Middle East situation on inflation remains under consideration.
