Investing.com - The Bank of England’s Monetary Policy Committee voted unanimously to keep interest rates unchanged at 0.75 percent as expected.

The BoE press conference following the central bank’s first meeting of 2019 will be watched with close attention to comments from BoE governor Mark Carney and for any hint of future rate hikes.

The BoE\'s new economic growth and inflation forecasts will be watched as a sign of whether it thinks investors are being too relaxed by betting on no rate hikes until late 2019.

Investors will also be looking for comment on the UK economy amidst the global economic slowdown and with 50 days left to go until the UK is scheduled to leave the European Union on 29 March.
