How rising UK interest rates are hitting household budgets
UK interest rates are set to rise. According to the BBC, mortgages, credit cards and loans could become more expensive for millions of people. One person quoted in the report says their mortgage is going up by £200. The story looks at how higher rates are affecting people's everyday finances.
📊 What it means for markets
Higher interest rates often raise borrowing costs and can weigh on household spending, which may affect UK-focused stocks and the pound. Effects on gold, oil, the US dollar, the euro and crypto are usually less direct and can vary.
