BOE Raises Interest Rate to 0.75% in 9-0 Vote

The transcript discusses Mark Carney's perspective on the Bank of England's rate hike, which appears more aggressive than expected. It highlights the hawkish tone of the unanimous vote and the implications for the neutral rate, projected to be 3% in the long term.

The discussion also covers the gradual increase in the neutral rate globally and the market's expectation of a slow pace of rate hikes, with one per year being consistent with current trends.
