BOE's Pill: Further action required to ensure inflation will return to 2% target

Bank of England (BoE) Chief Economist Huw Pill said on Wednesday that further policy action will likely be required to ensure that inflation returns sustainably to the 2% target, as reported by Reuters.

Pill further added that he does not anticipate raising bank rate to levels priced by markets ahead of the November monetary policy report.
