BOE: Coronavirus could mean economic growth downgrade for UK, Mark Carney warns
(Sky)
- Britain should prepare itself for an economic growth downgrade as the impact
of the coronavirus outbreak deepens, the governor of the Bank of England has

before he steps down next month, Mark Carney said the Bank had already detected
a fall in activity that could imply a downgrade - but it was too early to tell
how badly Britain would be affected. Mr Carney said: "What we are picking up
with some of our bigger companies and companies around the world is that supply
chains... are getting a little tight. That's lower activity.
