    And if it's in the same bank you have your mortgage(s), then if you hit repayment problems, it will disappear quickly too.

      With quantity easing there's little incentive to keep it in bank
      Quantity easing

      As for cash kept in the bank, there's precious little else you can do with company funds unless you either put it in a pension pot or take the increased tax hit on dividends.

        Yes, BoE plans to do stimulus, that's what this FTSE rally is on about, with 0.25% BoE rate looming...

            Almost every economist in a Bloomberg survey forecasts that the benchmark will be reduced on Aug. 4, with most predicting a lowering to 0.25 percent. A majority also see additional measures, such as QE or efforts to aid lending. The decision will be accompanied by the Inflation Report and new BOE forecasts.

                      Ah, the racism card, fairly predictable, who says I'm an English national?

                      If you consider "Quantity" to be a spelling mistake of "Quantitative", there really is no hope for you.
