Bank of England Monetary Policy Committee Member Megan Greene discusses the outlook for inflation, currency-market uncertainty and the impact of US President Donald Trump’s trade policies on the UK economy. “I think that the tariffs actually represent more of a disinflationary risk than an inflationary risk,” Greene says on Bloomberg Television.
