Bank of England is going to announce its decision on interest rates this afternoon, We believe that Bank of England will keep the interest rates unchanged at 0.50%, as growth slowdown was seen in last few months and we are sure that the BoE will be pressured to keep the rates unchanged. Also the inflation there is not a big reason to worry about in UK region. So we will be placing our bets that BoE will not hike its interest rates today.
