Budget 2026: Five Things To Watch
Last week, OakNorth and Boardwave welcomed a group of Boardwave members for a timely discussion with former Chancellor of the Exchequer under the Theresa May Government, Lord Philip Hammond. Held two weeks before the current Chancellor Rachel Reeves’ Budget on 26 November, the session offered a clear-sighted view of the global, economic, and political forces shaping the choices ahead. Hammond provided an inside perspective on the realities shaping the UK’s economic future, and thought processes that will be influencing the Chancellor’s decisions.
