Key Quotes
"Bank of England Governor Carney is due to testify before a Treasury Committee on the Bank of England bill today – while the focus is thus not directly on monetary policy or the growth outlook, the Q&A on the role of the BoE may drift into a discussion of current monetary policy."
"BoE hawkish dissenter McCafferty is also due to speak today and, in light of moderating data and still-soft inflation, any hint that McCafferty has softened his conviction to hike the policy rate could be seen as a signal of how the committee as a whole will discuss the outlook in the November Quarterly Inflation Report."
