Bank of England expected to slow bond-buying programme and hold interest rates today – business live

The Bank of England is expected to slow down its bond-buying programme and keep interest rates unchanged today. This decision is significant because it will impact the UK's borrowing costs, which have been a major concern for the economy. The Bank's bond-buying programme has been a key tool in managing the UK's debt, and slowing it down will likely lead to higher borrowing costs for the government. This could have implications for the overall economy and the value of the pound.

Why it matters

The Bank of England's decision on bond-buying and interest rates will affect UK borrowing costs. A slower bond-buying programme may lead to lower borrowing costs, but the impact on the overall economy is uncertain.
