Copy of MNI Global Market Briefing: Ifo to the fore​

With little U.S. data on the schedule Monday, the German IFO survey will be the highlight of the day.

IFO seen lower in October (0900 BST)

The Ifo business climate index is seen lower in October, falling to 97.9 from 98.8 previously, which will be the fourth consecutive monthly decline. September was lower as procurement and supply chain issues weighed on production and with those issues spreading into October there will be little respite for manufactures.

The expectations index is seen falling to 96.4, with current conditions falling to 99.4 from 100.4 previously.

BNB to dip from September levels (1400 BST)

The Belgian National Bank's business index is expected to fall to 3.5 in October, dipping from the 4 last month.

The only policymaker scheduled to speak Friday is BOE MPC member Silvana Tenreyro, who could offer some light to the current rate debate.
