Economic Forecasting and
Interest Rates
ü
The accuracy and
reliability of our forecast is fundamental in the
achievement of successful investment and borrowing
strategies.
ü Critically important
is the fact that the research has not been produced for
institutional investors, repackaged and passed on to
clients as bespoke analysis.
ü The basis is
provided by our independent consultant, Professor David
Llewellyn, Head of the Money and Banking Faculty at
Loughborough University.
 
Butlers
economic and interest rate
forecasts are fundamental to the creation of
each client’s unique strategy. This has enabled clients
to maximise opportunities in both their debt and
investment strategies.
Our comprehensive forecasts
are based on the views of our
independent consultant
David Llewellyn. This means that the forecasts are
produced solely for clients and are not a reconstitution
of information meant for other types of customer.
The forecast process also
incorporates other independent information from various
financial and forecasting bodies (for example Capital
Economics) as well as using the
extensive ICAP resources
such as its bond research department.
The other key to the service is the
tailored and readable publications
produced by Butlers’ personnel. These range from a daily
economic comment to an annual review; the latter forming
the base upon which strategies for future financial
years can be established.
