Key takeaways include:

The increase in the cost-of-living is putting significant pressure on household incomes.
Consumer confidence has hit record lows and monetary activities seem to be slowing.
Data suggests that inflation will peak at around 11 percent this autumn and average at approximately 8.7 percent over the course of 2022. The Bank of England (BoE) is likely to continue raising interest rates, increasing the risk borrowers face.
