This is a recording of a revision webinar (May 2017) on monetary policy in the UK economy as we reach 20 years of Bank of England Independence.
There has been nearly a decade of ultra low policy interest rates and quantitative easing in the UK now exceeds £450 billion (or 20% of the annual level of GDP). Are low interest rates helping to sustain the recovery or creating deeper problems from side effects such as rising house prices and collapse in real returns for savers?
Here are the slides from the presentation / webinar
