Talk:Bank of England

I've slung this in Economics and Politics. I'm tempted to add History. Any thoughts? –Tom Morris 12:17, 28 December 2009 (UTC)

Good start!

Tom - This is a good start on a useful article. I do hope that you intend to continue. There is much that is of general interest to be said on this subject. Readers may, for example, want to learn about the bank's role in trying to avoid a repetition of the current financial crisis (their financial stability page[1] is a good starting-point for that). There may also be reader interest in the Bank's relationship with the Financial Standards Authority and the Treasury - especially in view of the Conservative Party's wish to change it. Some links to banking, macroprudential financial policy, financial system and monetary policy would also be helpful. Nick Gardner 10:21, 7 January 2010 (UTC)

Yep, I'll get around to adding that information soon. Thanks again. –Tom Morris 14:58, 7 January 2010 (UTC)

I have corrected a number of inaccuracies in the text, added some wikilinks and put a list of legislation in an addendum. I hope that this is helpful, and that the drafting of new paragraphs will now continue. I suggest that the material on banknotes should first be transferred to the addendum so as not to divert the reader's attention from the Bank's more influential activities.
