BoE MPC member Greene flags concern policy may not be restrictive enough
Greene's intervention matters less as a policy signal than as a marker of internal friction: with expectations anchored but still elevated, the case for calling the stance restrictive enough is contested inside the MPC itself. That keeps the easing path data-dependent rather than pre-committed, which is the relevant backdrop for rate-sensitive crypto and RWA markets that have priced in a smoother cutting cycle. Whether Greene's caution is echoed by other members is the open question.
