# British Pound: Hawkish BoE but Pound upside capped – Commerzbank

> The Bank of England raised rates, with all policymakers backing an increase and one member favoring a larger move; Governor Andrew Bailey indicated another rise may be needed. Commerzbank said it expects the next increase in February and sees limited scope for sterling to rise in the meantime, as much future tightening is already priced in.

## Why it matters

Expectations for further UK rate increases can support sterling, but the bank’s view that much of the tightening is already priced in limits the currency’s potential upside. This is a currency-market outlook, not a direct feed commodity supply or demand change.
