BOE Monetary Policy Committee member Michael Saunders said interest rates would rise at a faster pace if the Brexit went smoothly. His most prominent comments were as follows:

  • The UK economy is moving to increase demand in the next year or two if the UK leave EU smoothly.
  • We may need to return to neutral interest rates sooner than the yield curve in case UK leaves the EU
  • The effects of monetary policy on the various results of the Brexit can go in any direction
