# Bank of America pointed out that the market generally expects the Bank of England to maintain the ba

> Bank of America pointed out that the market generally expects the Bank of England to maintain the bank rate at 4.00%, despite a slowdown in the labor market that has not shown a sharp deterioration, reducing the urgency for aggressive easing policies. The expected voting result today is 7 votes in favor of maintaining the rate and 2 votes against it, with Dingra and Taylor likely voting against advocating for a rate cut, and Ramsden may join the opposing camp. Overall, the actual impact of the voting results is not significantly different, but it will make the event more interesting

Bank of America pointed out that the market generally expects the Bank of England to maintain the bank rate at 4.00% today. Although the labor market conditions have slowed down, there are currently no signs of a sharp deterioration. This reduces the urgency for aggressive easing policies, especially since the inflation data from July and the risks to mid-term prices do not support consecutive rate cuts. The institution added that the Bank of England should continue to emphasize a more gradual and cautious policy stance while highlighting concerns about persistent inflationary pressures. As for today's decision, the more noteworthy part may be the voting segment regarding the bank rate. Bank of America expects today's voting result to be 7 votes in favor of maintaining the rate and 2 votes against, with Dingra and Taylor expected to cast opposing votes advocating for a rate cut. However, the bank believes there is a risk that Ramsden may join the opposing camp, shifting the voting result to 6 votes in favor and 3 against. Overall, the actual impact difference between these two outcomes is not significant, but it will undoubtedly make the event more interesting
