Description

We've raised our forecast for UK GDP growth this year by 0.2ppts to 1.3% due to a stronger-than-expected Q2. But we still project growth to slow to just 0.9% in 2026. We forecast sluggish growth next year given the strength of domestic headwinds, including fiscal policy being tightened significantly and the lagged impact of past interest rate rises continuing to emerge.
