Persistent problems with markets’ ability to manage liquidity mean it would be unwise for central banks to shrink their balance sheets too far, Andrew Hauser said today (November 3).

However, he also said the BoE would seek to take measures to improve markets’ ability to manage liquidity without central bank intervention.
