The Bank of England's (BoE) Monetary Policy Committee (MPC) has some policy space available with the precise amount depending in part on prevailing market conditions, BoE policymaker Silvana Tenreyro said on Monday.

Key takeaways

"I do not see monetary financing dangers in the context of the Bank of England or recent policy actions of the MPC."

"Lower interest rates are unlikely to lead to sharply higher spending on some goods and services that are still perceived as risky because of COVID-19."
