fabrice: yes. stance of mp membersc on this committee -- of mpc members on this committee is that interests are correlated. they point out that there's very little evidence that the feds in the u.s. are driving interest rates here. it is more domestic factors that tend to be correlated naturally that drive those correlations in the cycle. we have to be careful about this. even though there are a lot of arguments that you could mention, the exchange rate is one of them, it is easier for the bank of england to start hiking after the fed because the pressure on the exchange rate is less. why not take that and wait this couple of months that you might need to hike after the fed? these are the parameters you might want to keep in mind. you can't say on the basis of those parameters that the bank of england would like the fed to go first. francine: i would say, who's the biggest? let them go first. when are you expecting the first rate hike? fabrice: we are at q1+++ february. we had a call of q4. we push
