Adam Ruddle Chief Investment Officer at LV=, shares his thoughts on today’s announcement on UK interest rates:  “The Bank of England holding interest rates at 5% is in line with our expectations. “The path to normalising interest rates is more difficult for the Bank of England with UK inflation more persistent, driven by services inflation, which is an important component of the headline inflation rate, rising over the last month from 5.2% to 5.6%. We anticipate a further rate cut at the next meeting in November as the current level is overly restrictive, particularly as other central banks, such as the Federal Reserve, have begun their rate cutting cycles, placing pressure on the Pound which will soften exports and weaken the UK economy. Falling rates will be welcome news for mortgage holders, where according to LV= research, one in four are worried about their repayments.” #InterestRates #CostOfLiving #FinancialServices
