LONDON, Feb 24 (Reuters) - Bank of England interest
rate-setter Silvana Tenreyro said the impact of the energy price
shock, as well as time lags in how monetary policy works,
brought a risk of raising borrowing costs too high when
attempting to bring down inflation.
Tenreyro made the comments in slides she was due to present
in a panel discussion about inflation at a conference on Friday
organised by the Federal Reserve Bank of New York.
Tenreyro was one of two members of the nine-strong Monetary
Policy Committee who voted not to raise interest rates at the
MPC's most recent meeting earlier this month. The BoE raised
rates by half-a-percentage point, its 10th hike in a row.
