Bank of England to support sterling with further rate hikes

“The BoE did hike for a third meeting in a row and more hikes will come later this year. Hence, we favour sterling to restrengthen versus the euro and probably already during Q2 if or when we get a pause or a lasting solution between Ukraine and Russia.”
