(Reuters) -Bank of England Deputy Governor Sarah Breeden said on Tuesday that she saw a case for cutting interest rates last month even without the impact of trade policy uncertainty on the global economy.
“I thought that there was a case for a cut in Bank Rate, even absent the international developments, because I judged that domestic disinflationary process that we’ve all talked about was progressing as I expected, and I thought it would continue,” Breeden told parliament’s Treasury Committee.
