Groupama Asset Management sees BoE raising rates 25 basis points to 4.25% in February 2027

• Groupama Asset Management expects another preventive Bank of England rate increase of 25 basis points in February 2027, taking rates to 4.25%.
• The forecast hinges on the energy shock feeding into wages and services prices; it would not signal a new tightening cycle.
• All nine policymakers backed the latest increase as the central bank adopted a firmer stance on inflation risks.
• Inflation projections rose to 4.5% in the first quarter of 2027, reaching about 5% in the second quarter versus September's 3.5% forecast.
• Already restrictive financial conditions, slowing growth and fiscal restraint limit the economy's capacity to absorb prolonged rate increases.
