- We expect services inflation to slow but still exceed the MPC’s forecast by 0.2pp.

- We expect PAYE employment to rise 20K in May and April’s fall to be revised close to no change.

- Business confidence is still rising, so we think the economy will keep growing robustly.
Rob Wood (Chief UK Economist)UK
- The National Living Wage hike will push private-sector regular pay to a solid 0.8% month-to-month April rise.
- But survey indicators continue to signal gradually slowing wage growth, as recruitment difficulties ease.
- Average weekly earnings growth should slow decisively in H2 2024 as the NLW distortions fade.
