- The GBP/USD falls below 1,3600, struggling to recover the impulse after a three -day running streak.
- The BOE financial stability report warns of high global risks, including geopolitical tensions and sovereign debt stress.
- The US dollar index remains about 97.60, with operators attentive to FOMC minutes for Fed policy signals.
The sterling pound (GBP) is stabilized against the US dollar (USD) on Wednesday, stopping its three -day streak down despite a strong dollar, while operators react to the last financial stability report of the Bank of England (BOE).
The GBP/USD is close to the 1,3600 brand, quoting around 1,3587 at the time of writing during the American negotiation session. Meanwhile, the American dollar index (DXY), which tracks the value of the US dollar in front of a basket of six main currencies, remains firm, quoting around 97.60 while investors expect the publication of the minutes of the meeting of the Federal Open Market Committee (FOMC) later on Wednesday.
In its latest financial stability report, the BOE declared that, although the United Kingdom’s financial system is still resistant, global financial perspectives have become more challenging. The Central Bank indicated persistent geopolitical tensions, fragmented commercial flows and growing pressure of sovereign debt as key risks. Although global markets have stabilized something after a pause in the EE.U. tariff escalation, assets of assets remain high and vulnerable to sudden corrections, which could potentially impact the cost and availability of financing for households and businesses in the United Kingdom.
Despite these external risks, the FPC evaluated that the United Kingdom banks are well capitalized and are able to support the real economy, even in more severe conditions. The granting of mortgages has increased, reflecting a constant demand for households.
The Committee chose to maintain the Buffer of ContracÃclic Capital (CCyB) in 2%, but noted that it is ready to reduce the buffer if the internal conditions weaken. The report also addressed the risks of digital finances, including stablecoins, emphasizing the need for solid support assets and price stability. In addition, the FPC reiterated concerns about vulnerabilities in non -bank financial institutions and requested greater transparency and stronger safeguards in market -based finances.
Looking ahead, the market approach will be transferred to the minutes of the FOMC meeting, which will be published later on Wednesday at 6:00 p.m. which could provide new perspectives on the career trajectory of the Central Bank and inflation perspectives. The operators will also keep an eye on any new development around global commercial tensions, especially after the recent tariff threats of the US and the extension of the term for reciprocal measures.
