LONDON (MNI) – The Bank of England set out Thursday its programme
for gilt purchases in the second quarter of the 2010/11 fiscal year (Q3
of the calendar year).

The purchases have no policy implications and relate solely to the
BOE’s own capital and cash ratio deposit investments.

The central bank routinely announces such purchases at the start of
each quarter.

The table below shows the Gilts the BOE plans to buy and the
