BoE's governor Bailey: Should economy grow as expected, some modest tightening likely to be needed

  • There has been little headline news on UK economic activity since May
  • We do not see spike in unemployment when furlough ends
  • It is expected that number of people unemployed will be about 250,000 higher than before the pandemic
  • There is growing evidence of job vacancies and labour market tightness
  • Underlying wage growth is near pre-COVID levels
  • Recovery is unbalanced, weighted towards goods not services
  • Inflation is marked by historical standards; it is driven by higher cost of goods, energy prices and supply constraints
  • Key question for MPC is whether inflation pressures are temporary
  • Our view is inflation pressures will reduce
  • MPC will focus on medium term prospects for inflation, not transient factors
  • Bank rate is BoE's main tool for altering monetary conditions
  • Impact of reducing stock of BoE assets is uncertain
  • Impact of asset purchases greatest in dysfunctional markets
  • Future steady-state stock of bank reserves will remain larger than before the start of BoE asset purchases
  • MPC takes risk of persistently higher inflation seriously
  • Good reasons to think above-target inflation will be temporary
  • MPC will not hesitate to act
