"The process of disinflation is still ongoing, although inflation has actually risen over the past few months, and we expect it to continue to rise in the third quarter of this year," Green said. "Despite the short-term price peak, we expect inflation to continue to fall to our 2% target in the medium term," Green said. "Green is seen as one of the most hawkish officials in the Bank of England. While she supports a 25 basis point cut in interest rates to 4.25% last month, she, like some other policymakers, prefers to keep borrowing costs unchanged.
