Recent UK economic data and Bank of England projections point to subdued Q3 2026 GDP growth amid higher energy prices from the Middle East conflict. Q2 expanded 0.4% quarter-on-quarter after 0.6% in Q1, but underlying momentum has weakened with services leading modest gains while construction and production lagged. The BoE’s July Monetary Policy Report projects near-zero underlying growth in Q3 as elevated energy costs erode real incomes, heighten uncertainty, and tighten financial conditions, with CPI inflation expected to rise toward 3.2% by year-end. Independent forecasters’ median estimate for Q3 QoQ stands at 0.2%, consistent with market-implied odds favoring the 0.2–0.3% bin. Bank Rate remains at 3.75% pending further inflation and labor-market data.
