Broadbent due up at 11:30GMT

BOE
  • Just a reminder that BOE Deputy Governor Ben Broadbent is due to speak at 11:30GMT.
  • His speech at Leeds University is entitled "Outlook for growth, inflation and monetary policy." Broadbent is one of the swing members on the MPC, so he is likely to be needed to be on board to get a hike over the line (which is looking increasingly unlikely for December after Saunders' comments on Friday).
  • Broadbent's comments will therefore be very closely watched today.
  • In addition to the speech itself, there will be a Q&A.
  • This is the last scheduled appearance from an MPC member ahead of the 16 December announcement.
