The Bank of England raised its benchmark rate by 25 basis points to 4.00% on November 5, its first hike since August 2023 and in line with market expectations. Governor Andrew Bailey said the move is unlikely to be the last unless the Iran war is resolved. The decision marks the end of a three-year easing cycle and signals that energy-driven inflation risks are overriding growth concerns. Traders will watch the scale of any further hikes and the trajectory of the conflict, which Bailey framed as the key variable for policy.
