The UK Investor Magazine was delighted to host OANDA’s Craig Erlam for a deep dive into UK interest rates, the economic outlook and potential trading opportunities.

We start with the analysis of the Bank of England’s decision to raise rates by 0.5% and the factors behind the surprise rate hike. The conversation moves on to the outlook for interest rates for the rest of this year and what we’ll need to see in inflation to avoid rates rising to 6.25%.

Craig makes comparisons to other policies of central banks and how the divergence in policy could create market opportunities for traders.

We finish with a rundown of key markets to watch for the rest of this year.
