RPI

We'll discuss why we need to bother trying and why the common UK approach just hasn't worked. Then, apart from considering the relative performance of ILGs against conventional gilts, we'll look at alternative UK indices and then draw our tentative conclusions. Last year, we added CPIH to RPI and CPI but index-linked gilts are currently still linked to RPI. Indeed, the Bank of England indices are also assessed against RPI but we know that will be changed. We intend to continue extending the analyses over time.
