UBS Recommend Receiving SONIA 1y1y
STIR
UBS recommend receiving SONIA 1y1y.
- They reason that “despite better-than-expected growth so far this year, UK GDP growth still lags behind the pre-pandemic trend. Combined with still restrictive monetary and fiscal policies, this should continue to exert downward pressure on inflation and wages over time.”
- They attribute the recent low beta of SONIA vs. SOFR & EUR STIRs to a cautious MPC (when it comes to rate cuts) and UK economic resilience.
