The euro rose sharply against the dollar, helped by positive data from Germany. The Federal Ministry of Economics and Technology has reported that up to the month of June, industrial production in Germany increased substantially, thereby exceeded the forecasts of most economists.

The transition to economic thresholds is another innovation in the policies of the Bank of England. While the economy is showing signs of strengthening, the central bank said the new tactic is to reduce the risk of "premature" increase in short-term rates and help ensure recovery.

In addition, the monetary policy committee predicts that the most likely in the next 18-24 months, the consumer price inflation will be 0.5 percentage points higher than the 2% target, and can grow even stronger. Medium-term inflation expectations can no longer be called sustainable. The Bank of England said that if the threshold is breached, it will not mean an automatic increase in interest rates.

The central bank forecasts that economic growth will be 0.5 percent this quarter after expanding 0.6 percent in the previous three months. Gross domestic product in 2013 and 2014 will rise to 1.5 percent and 2.7 percent respectively.
