The Bank of England (BoE) kept its key interest rate unchanged at 3.75% in April 2026, extending the pause in policy tightening that began in March. According to the latest data, updated on 30 April 2026, the benchmark rate remained at the same level as the previous decision in March 2026.

The decision signals a continuation of the BoE’s wait-and-see approach, with policymakers opting to maintain borrowing costs rather than adjust the rate for a second consecutive month. With the benchmark held at 3.75%, markets and businesses will be watching closely for any indications of when the central bank might next move on rates and in which direction.
