The UK finance ministry has just confirmed the cut of meetings on Reuters
Not unexpected news as they are currently running trials of a new MPC format
The reduction in meetings isn't good for the old volatility, particularly now that the ECB has cut theirs also
They have been running a new format for MPC meetings. The MPC will now be briefed on econ data a week before the meeting and the quarterly inflation reports will now come on meeting announcement day too. The minutes will also be released at the same time, instead of two weeks later
The new process is due to start in August, which makes it a very big day for the UK and pound, given the recent talk from various MPC members
The next meeting is 6th August. Mark it down in you calendars folks
