ICYMI – Morgan Stanley slashes UK 2025 GDP growth forecast to 0.9% (from 1.3% previously)

Justin had the news on this on Monday.

Morgan Stanley cited:

  • recent slowdown
  • signs of labour market weakness

MS added that the lingering effects of the 16-year Bank rate will weigh on growth:

  • peak impact of the BoE’s policy tightening is likely behind us
  • drag on the economy still persists

Bank of England Bank Rate is currently 4.75%
