Disaster risk is the risk of harm following the serious disruption of a community or society, resulting from natural or human-made events.


Monetary policy is central government or other policy designed to stimulate or otherwise affect economic activity by influencing money supply or interest rates.  
Disasters may be sudden onset or slow onset.


Responsibility for setting UK monetary policy - to achieve monetary stability - lies with the Bank of England's Monetary Policy Committee (MPC).


 
Disasters include the impacts of cyclones, droughts, floods, earthquakes, wars and many others.
The MPC was established in 1997 to be independent of the UK government.
 
A primary objective of the MPC is to meet the UK government's inflation target of 2%.
 
 
The MPC normally meets eight times a year to set and announce the Official Bank Rate for the UK.
 
Additional special meetings are held when appropriate.
