The ECB, the Federal Reserve and the Bank of Canada have postponed the rate hike plan to next year but the BoE remains steady on its decision to increase rates, which can support GBP. Investors do not expect the rate hike to come soon, it is most probably hitting in November and the increase can be up to 1 per cent where the policy of monetary tightening can provide support to the exchange values.
