​​​UK markets under pressure as political risk builds

​The FTSE 100 fell around 0.4% as United Kingdom (UK) assets came under renewed pressure. Sterling weakened 0.3% towards $1.36, making it the worst-performing G10 currency on the day. Political uncertainty and a cautious global backdrop weighed on sentiment ahead of the Bank of England (BoE) decision.

​Gilt yields pushed higher, with ten-year rates hitting their highest level since late November. The gap between 2-year and 10-year yields widened to its steepest since 2018, as a political risk premium crept into UK government debt. This curve steepening reflects growing unease about fiscal policy and longer-term economic prospects.
