Abstract
The UK economy is expected to grow by 2.0 per cent in 2016, down from the 2.3 per cent predicted in the February Review. Growth will pick up to 2.7 per cent in 2017.We expect the Bank of England to start raising interest rates in November. Rates will then continue rising throughout 2017, ending the year at 1.5 per cent.Although broadly unaffected in 2016, GDP is projected to be 1 per cent lower than our baseline forecast in 2017 if the UK votes to leave the European Union in next month's referendum. In the longer run, GDP is expected to be between 1.5 and 3.7 per cent lower than our baseline forecast.
