N2 - The Bank of England has increased interest rates by one quarter of a percentage point on three occasions since last summer, in August and November of 2006 and in January of 2007. January‟s increase in the base rate to 5.25% surprised many analysts, most of whom had expected the decision to be delayed until February. Although rates were kept on hold in February and March, most commentators are expecting a further increase in April or May.
