The pound sterling hit a multi-month low ahead of BOE monetary policy. Any hawkish 25 bpbs rate hike by the Bank of England will push the pair higher.

Median GDP growth forecasts for 2023 increased to 2.1% from 1%. The hawkish surprise came in 2024. The central bank expects to cut rates twice next year from the four rate cuts predicted in June 2023.
