BOE Faces End of Easing Cycle, Ukraine & US to Resume Peace-Plan Talks | The Opening Trade 12/15

From Bloomberg Markets and Finance.

A widely anticipated interest-rate cut by the Bank of England this week will force policymakers to confront whether their easing cycle is nearing its end almost 1 1/2 years after it began.

Ukraine and the US are due to hold a second day of talks in Berlin on a plan aimed at ending Russia’s war, with allied security guarantees for Kyiv a central focus of the negotiations.

The Opening Trade has everything you need to know as markets open across Europe. With analysis you won’t find anywhere else, we break down the biggest stories of the day and speak to top guests who have skin in the game. Hosted by Anna Edwards and Lizzy Burden.
