Breaking: Bank of England holds interest rates at 5.25%

Bank of England voting hints change is coming as rate held at 5.25% – savers urged to act now.

The Bank of England has held its base rate at 5.25%.

The BoE left the Bank Rate untouched today but MPC voting left a dovish feeling post-decision. At the last meeting, six out of nine members voted to keep rates unchanged, two voted for a rate hike, and one member voted for a rate cut. Today’s vote, eight unchanged and one cut, suggests that rate cuts are nearing.
