- Prior £1.2 billion
Consumer credit growth remains steady at +6.1% y/y and that still indicates that the economy isn't running too hot even post-election. This should keep pressure on the pound as the BOE looks to cut rates amid virus concerns with post-Brexit talks looming as well.
Cable is keeping lower at 1.2765 currently, just off lows of 1.2756 on the day.
