Hugh's review: What next at the Bank of England?
The handover at the top of the Bank of England is due to happen in a week's time. Mark Carney will replace Sir Mervyn King and there's already speculation he may press for more action to boost growth with an expansion of the money creation programme known as QE (quantitative easing).
