Bailey Attributes Part of UK Yield Curve Rise to Bond Risk Premiums

The Bank of England’s Bank Rate stands at 3.75%, while Bailey distinguished bond risk pricing from expectations of a rate increase.

Bank of England Governor Andrew Bailey said bond-market risk premiums explain part of the rise in UK yields, separating the move from expectations of an interest-rate increase.

The Bank Rate stands at 3.75%. Bailey identified compensation for bond-market risk as one factor behind the rise in the UK yield curve.

The remarks add a bond-market dimension to the Bank of England’s policy discussion, where inflation control has been central to Chief Economist Huw Pill’s policy outlook.
