U.K. MONEY MARKET DEFICIT FORECAST AT 700 MLN STG The Bank of England said it has forecast a shortage of around 700 mln stg in the system today. Among the main factors, maturing assistance and take-up of treasury bills will drain 546 mln stg, bills for repurchase by the market 76 mln, a rise in note circulation 310 mln and bankers balances below target 105 mln. The outflow will be partly offset by 340 mln stg exchequer transactions.
