Overview
This first edition reveals how the Bank influences inflation by setting the UK's interest rate. The process is shown step-by-step as staff analyse the state of the UK's finances, leading to Governor Mark Carney and other senior figures making their decision. In the lead-up to the interest rate announcement, the press speculates over what Governor Carney and his team will decide, but inside the Bank, the meticulous work of monitoring the economy must carry on unhindered by outside influence.
