EUR/GBP may be more comfortable in the 0.8650-0.8700 area
"If that's the case, we doubt EUR/GBP needs to stray too far from the 0.8700 area. Equally, there could be a positive surprise for sterling were the BoE to announce that a lower pace of quantitative tightening – e.g., £75bn per year instead of £100bn – was accompanied by fewer sales of longer-dated Gilts. That could take some pressure off the longer end of the curve and be seen as a positive for UK sovereign risk."
