Prime Minister Rishi Sunak has fired the starting pistol for the race to form the next government. A general election will be held on 4 July, which if opinion polls and betting markets are correct, will make for a challenging result for the current government. So what is the state of the UK economy and markets heading into this election?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Azad Zangana, Senior European Economist and Strategist<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

\u2018One of the three key questions I\u2019ve been asked by clients is around the timing of this election<\/strong>. At face value it seems odd, but perhaps not so odd when you consider a likely slowdown in growth ahead (after a surprisingly strong Q1) in combination with stickier-than-expected inflation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u2018Stickier inflation seems likely to push out interest rate cuts and with them the prospect of lower mortgage costs in the immediate future.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u2018The decision to call a summer election is a little surprising, with many, including ourselves, expecting an election in the autumn. Elections near holiday seasons (schools in Scotland will have started summer holidays) risk poor turn-outs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u2018And the timing doesn\u2019t fit with the message from the Conservatives that the economy is strengthening while inflation is \u201cback to normal\u201d. The latter implies cuts to interest rates will follow shortly, which would surely be expected to boost support for the incumbent party when they arrive?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u2018In Sunak\u2019s speech outside 10 Downing Street, he claimed that the \u2018\u2026economy is now growing faster than anyone predicted\u2026\u2019, referring to the surprisingly strong Q1 GDP growth estimate, which marked the end of the UK\u2019s recession.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u2018Much of the surprise, however, was driven by what appear to be temporary factors, which is likely to mean a slowdown in coming quarters. He also mentioned that \u2018\u2026inflation is back to normal\u2019 after the latest figures for April showed CPI inflation had fallen from 3.2% year-on-year (y\/y) to 2.3% y\/y.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u2018While the fall in inflation was large, it was mainly due to a cut in home energy bills and base effects. April\u2019s CPI inflation was in fact disappointing, as consensus estimates had been for a drop to 2.1%. As a result, expectations for the first Bank of England (BoE) interest rate cut moved out from June to September, which will effectively push up mortgage costs for those refinancing in the near future.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u2018Moreover, our inflation model suggests that inflation is likely to rise from around July onwards, away from the BoE\u2019s target of 2%. This could challenge the government\u2019s claims of inflation being back to normal.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u2018Another consideration is the recent pressure on the government to disincentivise illegal migrant small-boat crossings. This is beyond our scope to analyse in detail, but the summer is expected to prompt an increase in crossing, as the warmer weather helps calm crossing conditions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u2018Failure on this front could cost the centre-right Conservative Party votes to the more right-wing Reform Party, previously known as the Brexit Party.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u2018The second question clients ask<\/strong> is who is likely to win this election?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u2018Opinion polls should always be taken with a pinch of salt, and while campaigning is only just about to get underway, the opposition Labour Party has a huge lead.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u2018Indeed, they have what appears to be an unassailable lead in the polls of 21 percentage points over the Conservatives (see chart 1, below). That lead has been fairly steady throughout Sunak\u2019s premiership, following the internal replacement of previous prime minister Liz Truss.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u2018The implied probability from betting markets (Betfair) suggest a 95% probability that Labour Party leader Keir Starmer will be the next prime minister, and an 82.3% probability that his party will command a majority in the House of Commons (see chart 2, above).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u2018Betting markets put a 3% chance of the Conservative Party retaining a majority. So, naturally this leads to the third question I\u2019m being asked<\/strong>, which is what a Labour government might mean for the UK? At present, however, there is not an awful lot of concrete information to work with.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u2018Having had a commanding lead for some time in opinions polls, Labour has not faced much pressure to announce its own policy prescriptions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u2018Combined with the significant changes in personnel and policies since the end of their previous time in government in 2010, this has raised questions on the intended policy approach, and the degree of socialist policies that may follow.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u2018Shadow chancellor Rachel Reeves’ speech for the Mais Lecture<\/em> on 19 March offered some insights of policy messaging to follow. The message of: \u2018\u2026building growth on strong and secure foundations, with active government guided by three imperatives. First, guaranteeing stability; second, stimulating investment through partnership with business; and third, reform to unlock the contribution of working people and the untapped potential throughout our economy.\u2019<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u2018The first \u201cimperative\u201d is a clear political dig at the political instability under the last government, particularly the Liz Truss era, although Brexit was mentioned several times. Arguably, this has been less of an issue under Sunak, but Reeves stated the intention to legislate the mandatory provision of a forecast by the independent Office for Budgetary Responsibility (OBR).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u2018This would apply whenever any government announces significant and permanent tax and spending changes. Truss was the first prime minister not to have the OBR provide an assessment of a fiscal event in her short time in power.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u2018The second imperative appears to be an olive branch to business, which has had good reason to fear past Labour Party leadership. Showing that a Labour government can work successfully with businesses is not only important for attracting foreign direct investment, but also solidifying its reputation in the eyes of financial markets.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u2018Lastly, focusing on reform to boost productivity and prosperity is an obvious area of focus, although very light on policy initiatives at this stage. A commitment to strengthen an objective to raise growth for HM Treasury in planning its fiscal policy may help.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u2018There was also a significant section on what Reeves refers to as \u201csecuronomics\u201d, which appears to signal a more considered approach to international trade and globalisation. This seems to lean more towards the current \u201cWashington Consensus\u201d, which could ultimately mean protectionist policies against China.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u2018In terms of fiscal policy, there is a clear desire to improve the public services, which will undoubtedly mean increased public investment. New fiscal rules are likely to strip out public investment, and only focus on day-to-day spending, known as the \u201ccurrent budget\u201d.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u2018The objective is likely to be to balance the current budget using tax revenues, but to allow borrowing to pay for increased public investment. This is with a view to reducing overall debt over the medium term.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u2018While Labour is avoiding the discussion of tax increases, the election campaign will inevitably force the party to offer more details. Some tax increases are likely to be needed, which is difficult given the \u201cfiscal drag\u201d which is occurring as the result of frozen income tax thresholds for the past seven years.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u2018With more and more workers paying higher marginal rates, the nation\u2019s tax burden is expected to rise to its highest level since 1948<\/a> by the end of the OBR\u2019s current forecast period \u2013 a tough legacy to inherit.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u2018Finding solutions for the long-term structural challenges to the UK economy will be key to successfully raising growth and living standards. These challenges include aging demographics, adapting to climate change, a more hostile external trading environment, and poor productivity growth.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u2018These will hopefully also mean improved returns for investors, that have largely avoided UK public markets for some time.\u2019<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Graham Ashby, Fund Manager, UK All Cap<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

\u2018Equity investing always carries risks and trying to time shifts in markets is far from being an exact science, very much like politics. That said, sentiment towards UK equities is at a very low ebb, and we\u2019re wondering if a change of UK government might coincide with a turning of the tide for sentiment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u2018With sentiment towards UK equities so low, contrarian investors might argue things can only get better. Legendary investor Warren Buffett once remarked that it\u2019s wise for investors to \u201cbe fearful when others are greedy and greedy when others are fearful\u201d.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u2018Could now be the time to be greedy with UK equities? \u2013 certainly some of the contrarian indicators suggest it is<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u2018And a new government might just have some influence on when some on the conditions for UK equities improve. Take the very low levels of pension fund domestic equity allocations, which stand out versus other jurisdictions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u2018Nobody has a crystal ball regarding exact timing, but it\u2019s hard to see that domestic pension funds can significantly further reduce their exposure to UK equities (see below).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"Pension<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u2018What\u2019s to stop a new government from mandating a certain minimum level of UK equity exposure within pension portfolios, following on from the current administration’s announcement of a British ISA?<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
