Surprise vote tally on UK interest rates
Sep 18, 2025 7:59 AM

The Bank of England on Thursday published the voting details on UK interest rates at the conclusion of its September 18 meeting, showing seven members voted to keep rates unchanged, while two members voted in favor of a 25-basis-point cut.

The outcome diverged from market expectations, which had pointed to an 81 split in favor of holding rates steady.

This vote is considered negative for the British pound.
