Rising energy prices from the Middle East conflict have pushed UK CPI inflation to 3.3% as of March 2026, prompting the Bank of England’s Monetary Policy Committee to hold Bank Rate at 3.75% in its April decision while signaling upside risks to second-round wage and price effects. Markets now price in roughly 60 basis points of tightening by year-end, shifting from earlier expectations of cuts, as oil prices remain elevated near $108 per barrel and the Bank’s scenarios project inflation climbing further in the second half of 2026. This backdrop underpins the 70% market-implied probability of at least one rate hike during the year. The June 18 Monetary Policy Committee meeting and upcoming CPI releases will provide key updates on whether persistent inflationary pressures outweigh the loosening labor market.
