The Bank of England’s September 17 decision is priced by markets to maintain Bank Rate at 3.75%, reflecting recent inflation data undershooting forecasts at 2.6% alongside subdued growth and limited evidence of second-round effects from elevated energy prices tied to Middle East tensions. The Monetary Policy Committee’s July 6-3 hold vote, with three members favoring a 25-basis-point hike, underscored a wait-and-see stance as global commodity volatility persists without yet embedding in wages or broader price setting. Trader consensus aligns with economist polls expecting no change this year, supported by the restrictive policy stance already in place. Escalation in energy costs or clearer signs of persistent inflation above the 2% target could still shift the balance toward tightening at this or future meetings.

This market will resolve according to the change in basis points in the Bank Rate resulting from the September 2026 meeting of the Bank of England’s Monetary Policy Committee, relative to the level it was prior to this meeting.
The resolution source will be official information from the Bank of England, including the statement or release from its September 2026 Monetary Policy Committee meeting, scheduled for September 17 2026, as listed on the official Bank of England calendar (https://www.bankofengland.co.uk/monetary-policy/upcoming-mpc-dates). This market may resolve as soon as the statement or release of the Bank of England's September 2026 Monetary Policy Committee meeting with relevant data is issued.
If the specified rate is defined by an upper and lower bound, the relevant change will be the change to the upper bound.
If the specified rate is changed to a level not expressed in the displayed options, the change will be rounded according to the following guidelines. Increases or decreases of less than 25 bps will be rounded to 25 bps (e.g. an increase or decrease of 10 bps would be considered to be an increase or decrease of 25 bps). Increases or decreases of greater than 25 bps will be rounded to the nearest 25 bps and will be rounded away from 0 in cases of equidistance (e.g., an increase or decrease of 37.5 bps would be considered to be an increase or decrease of 50 bps). Displayed options of “Increase” or “Decrease” will include policy rate increases or decreases of any size.
If the specified meeting is postponed to a date and time before the start of the next scheduled meeting, this market will resolve based on the outcome of that postponed meeting. If the specified meeting is cancelled, or postponed such that no decision is announced by the start of the next scheduled meeting, this market will resolve to the “No Change” bracket.
