In a speech delivered at Nottingham University, Martin Weale discussed a range of unconventional policy options available to central banks. He underlined that he not believe the Monetary Policy Committee (MPC) will need to expand its use of unconventional policy any time soon, but it was important to assess these options as “the Committee does not want to be a monetary equivalent of King Æthelred the Unready”.
