United Kingdom policymaker Catherine Mann warned on Wednesday that interest rate hikes risk destabilizing the gilt market as overseas ownership hit 33%. The warning follows 30-year bond yields reaching their highest level since 1998 amid domestic political pressure on the government. Investors face increased volatility as price-sensitive hedge funds may exit positions faster than traditional pension funds during market shifts.
