BOE's Bailey: A gradual and cautious method on charge cuts stays acceptable

  • Monetary policy needs to continue to remain restrictive for sufficiently long until the risks to inflation returning sustainably to 2% has dissipated further
  • Monetary policy is not on a pre-set path
  • Interest rates remain on a gradual downwards path
  • In recent months, evidence that slack is opening up has strengthened; especially in the labour market
  • Should recognise that short-term pick up in inflation introduces some further uncertainty
