- UK finance firms will assume the worst case if there is just more Brexit transition time and no clear end framework

If you’re expecting any monetary policy comments, you’ll probably be disappointed. For one, this hearing is on reglulation and supervision, and two, we’re in the BOE purdah period before an MPC meeting, which meansMPC members can’t talk shop, though I’m not sure if this hearing can overide that.
