BOE's Lombardelli does not rule out December rate hike, she tells the Guardian

Bank ​of England ​Deputy Governor ‌Clare Lombardelli would ​not rule out the possibility of ‌voting for a rate hike in December, but she did not have ‌enough information yet, she said in an ‌interview with the Guardian published on Tuesday. “I think it depends what we ⁠see ​on the ⁠conflict and the energy prices and it ⁠depends what we see in the ​wider data and how all that ⁠fits together," Lombardelli told the Guardian, referring ⁠to ​the possibility of a further rate hike in December.

"But ⁠I wouldn’t rule it out. Equally, ⁠I ⁠don’t have enough information just yet.”
