Diary

The dates that move investors’ money, in one list: central bank decisions in the UK, the US and India, inflation figures and other official data releases, the Budget, tax-year deadlines, consultation closing dates and our own briefings. Every entry names the body that set the date and links to its official calendar, and we add an event only once that body has confirmed it. Times are UK time unless we say otherwise. For rules that change on a fixed date, such as a new tax rate or allowance, see the Rules Clock.
