Bank of England Monetary Reports
The Bank’s Monetary Policy Committee (MPC) sets monetary policy to keep inflation low and stable, which supports growth and jobs. The 2% inflation target is symmetric and applies at all times.
The MPC recognises that the actual inflation rate will depart from its target as a result of shocks and disturbances, and that attempts to keep inflation at target in these circumstances may cause undesirable volatility in output. The MPC will communicate how and when it intends to return inflation to the target.
The Monetary Policy Report (MPR) is produced quarterly and allows the MPC to share its thinking and explain the reasons for its decisions.
