Speech By Mervyn King, Governor Of The Bank Of England At The Grand Hotel In Brighton
My Lord-Lieutenant, High Sheriff, Ladies and Gentlemen

But none of this implies that 2012 will be an easy year. We begin it with the level of output more than 10% below a continuation of its pre-crisis trend, and the unemployment rate at a 15-year high. These are huge changes in our economic fortunes. Tonight I want to talk to you about what is happening to our economy, what it means for the years ahead, and how the Bank of England is responding.

- Swift adoption of standardised trade data through a comprehensive translation facilitated by market data vendors on behalf of their users.
- MMT delivers on the industry’s commitment to address the pressing need to deliver a substantial action for an efficient and, comprehensive tape of record for users of the EU Single Market.
