BOE's Greene: The disinflationary process is still ongoing


Comments from Bank of England rate-setter Megan Greene:

  • Most of the near-term hump in inflation is due to one-off factors
  • We expect inflation to continue to come down to target over medium term
  • Our view is that we can look through it but of course that’s a big risk
  • There is a risk people won’t consume even as rates come down
  • Trade fragmentation should be disinflationary for the UK
  • Going forward we could see policy divergence

I’d love to know more on why she thinks global fragmentation on trade — or deglobalization — will be disinflationary for the UK when intuitively it’s the opposite. In any case, she’s certainly dovish here. The market is pricing in 38 bps in BOE easing this year.
