According to Jin Ten Data, Mitsubishi UFJ analyst Derek Halpenny stated that the speeches of Bank of England policymakers Green and Lambardelli indicate that last week's decision to cut rates by 25 basis points was a balanced outcome. Both were very balanced in their considerations of whether to cut rates.

This decision was made before the UK-US trade agreement and the easing of tensions between China and the US. If the meeting is postponed by a week, Green and Lambardelli may vote to keep the interest rate unchanged. The Bank of England supported a 25 basis point rate cut last week with a 5 to 4 vote, with two members preferring to keep the rate unchanged and two members supporting a 50 basis point cut.
