Key quotes
"We no longer look for idiosyncratic GBP weakness, as investor sentiment on the fiscal side has improved meaningfully, and are updating both our 6- and 12-month EUR/GBP forecasts to 0.88 (from 0.89 and 0.90 previously) but keep our 3-month forecast unchanged at 0.89 because BoE dovishness could continue for a bit longer.”
"We would consider turning even more positive on GBP if we became confident in a revised approach from the BoE."
