Recent geopolitical tensions in the Middle East have driven sharp increases in global energy prices, pushing UK CPI inflation to 3.3% in March 2026 and prompting the Bank of England to revise its 2026 projections upward to around 3.3–3.7% by year-end in its base scenarios. This shift from prior expectations near 2% has elevated trader focus on upside risks, with the highest implied probability attached to a 4.5%+ annual rate amid uncertainty over sustained oil and gas shocks. Market pricing incorporates the potential for stronger second-round effects on wages and services, while upcoming CPI releases and the Bank’s June policy decision remain key catalysts that could further influence the distribution of outcomes for the full-year 2026 print.

The resolution source for this market will be the ONS Consumer Price Index monthly report released for December 2026 (https://www.ons.gov.uk/economy/inflationandpriceindices/bulletins/consumerpriceinflation/previousreleases), currently scheduled to be released on January 20, 2027. Resolution of this market will take place upon release of the aforementioned data. If no data for the specified month is released by the date the next month's data is scheduled to be released, this market will resolve based on data from the last available month.
You can find this report by choosing the report for the relevant month from the previous releases page for price indices on the ONS website (https://www.ons.gov.uk/economy/inflationandpriceindices/bulletins/consumerpriceinflation/previousreleases). The relevant figure can be found in the "Consumer price inflation rates" table under the column labeled "CPI 12-month rate (%)" for the relevant month.
Note: the resolution source for this market will be the official monthly ONS CPI news release which reports inflation change over 12-month periods to only one decimal point (e.g. 1.9%).
