LONDON, May 6 (Reuters) - The Bank of England said it would
slow the pace of its bond-buying as it sharply increased its
forecast for Britain's economic growth this year after its
coronavirus slump, but it stressed it was not tightening
monetary policy.

year of the forecast period, but broadly balanced further out.
