BoE/Ipsos inflation attitudes survey informs expectations risk
The Bank of England published the May 2026 BoE/Ipsos Inflation Attitudes Survey assessing public inflation expectations and views of the Bank.
The quarterly survey gauges household inflation expectations, a key input to monetary policy and consumer behaviour modelling. Shifts can affect deposit pricing, mortgage demand and conduct risk around cost-of-living vulnerable customers.
Inflation expectations influence rate path, customer behaviour and conduct risk on vulnerable cohorts.
Action Required
Factor inflation expectations data into rate, conduct and pricing risk assessments.
Public inflation expectations are a leading indicator for monetary policy and retail conduct exposures.
Integrate inflation attitudes data into ALM, deposit pricing and vulnerable customer monitoring frameworks. Review conduct controls and affordability assessments in light of expectations shifts.
