General Election 2024

The British Pound enters General Election 2024 with a spring in its step, but there could be some wobbles around 10 PM when the exit poll is released. Here's what to look out for.

MUFG Bank says the UK's political outlook contrasts favourably with developments in Europe and a strengthening economy will limit the amount of interest rate cuts the Bank of England can deliver in 2024.

Act now to protect against a potential rise in Capital Gains Tax (CGT) under a Labour government, says the CEO of one of the world's largest independent financial advisory and asset management organisations.

Less than a month into his residency at 10 Downing Street, Keir Starmer will have the supportive tailwinds of a Bank of England interest rate cut behind him.

A Labour win on July 04 would be supportive of Pound Sterling, which remains significantly undervalued against the Euro, according to a new currency research note.

Foreign exchange analysts at UBS retain a constructive bias on the British Pound despite the recent announcement that a General Election will take place on July 04.
