Hammond says would like Carney to extend time at BoE

Chancellor Philip Hammond said on Thursday he would like Bank of England Governor Mark Carney to serve a full eight-year term at the central bank, rather than leave in 2018 as he originally agreed. Carney has said he intends to say before the end of this year whether he will stick to his original plan to step down as BoE governor in less than two years' time, or extend his stay until 2021.
