Bank of England Lunch
Join us for what promises to be an informative and engaging event in November 2026
We’re delighted to announce that Kieran Dent from the Bank of England will return to share his expert insights on the national and regional economy at our event in late 2026.
Given the turbulent nature of world events and their ongoing impact on the UK and Norfolk economies, it’s difficult to predict exactly what the main talking points will be this much in advance However, we’re confident there will be significant issues to unpack, from monetary policy and interest rates to business investment and growth prospects.
This will be your opportunity to hear an off-the-record view of the economic landscape, understand what’s happening with key indicators affecting your business, and get your voice heard by posing questions directly to the Bank of England.
The event will be held under ‘Chatham House Rules’ and the press will not be invited, ensuring frank and open discussion.
Who is it for?
This event is ideal for senior decision-makers such as CEOs, Finance Directors, business owners, managers, entrepreneurs, and anyone interested in gaining expert insights from the Bank of England on the economic factors shaping Norfolk’s business environment.
About Kieran Dent
Kieran Dent became Agent for the South East and East Anglia in 2023. Prior to joining the Bank’s Agency network, Kieran was for many years a senior economist within the Bank’s Monetary Analysis area, working on the Bank’s UK forecast and monetary strategy teams. He later joined the Bank in 2011, starting out in its Financial Stability area, working on the design of the Bank’s concurrent stress test of the UK banking system, and issues concerning the UK banking sector more generally.
About the Bank of England
The Bank of England is the UK’s central bank, with a mission to deliver monetary and financial stability for the people of the United Kingdom. For Norfolk’s business community, the Bank of England plays a crucial role in shaping the economic environment in which local businesses operate. Through its Agency network, the Bank gathers intelligence from businesses across the regions to inform national monetary policy decisions. These insights from Norfolk businesses feed directly into the Bank’s understanding of economic conditions and help shape decisions on interest rates, inflation targets, and financial stability measures that affect every business in the county. Events like this provide a rare opportunity for Norfolk business leaders to engage directly with senior Bank officials and gain insight into the economic factors that will shape their strategic planning.
