UKFT Members: Make your voice heard

UK Fashion and Textile businesses have been asked to contribute to the Bank of England’s Monetary Policy Committee (MPC) regular London meeting.

The BoE’s MPC meets 8 times per year to set the ‘bank rate’, otherwise known as the Bank of England base rate or the interest rate. The BoE can decide to keep the rate the same, raise it, or decrease it.

It is important that the BoE has an accurate and up-to-date understanding of the current market conditions, particularly at this crucial time, so we do encourage UKFT members to complete this short survey. It should only take a couple of minutes and will help ensure the voice of the UK fashion and textiles industry is heard.
