# Sterling heads into BoE meeting in a 'strong position' with markets pricing four rate rises

> Sterling enters the Bank of England meeting on Thursday with markets pricing a 25bp rate hike, the first since August 2023, and three further hikes in 2027. Ebury expects a divided 7-2 vote, with a 6-3 split a possible bearish risk for the pound.

## Why it matters

A hawkish BoE pivot supports sterling, while a split vote or pushback on market pricing could weaken it; for feed buyers this is a currency and macro signal with little direct grain effect.
