Swiss National Bank (SNB) will announce policy decision on Thursday. Bank of England (BoE) will announce policy decision on Thursday. BoE will release quarterly bulletin on Friday.
- UK data:
Lots of economic data are scheduled for release this week, which could shed light on the state of the economy as the official Brexit beginning draws near; inflation numbers on Tuesday, Unemployment numbers on Wednesday, and Retail sales figure on Thursday.
