I used affect in the verb to influence as in 'BoE base rates indirectly affects the mortgage rates'

affect verb ( INFLUENCE )
to have an influence on someone or something, or to cause them to change Both buildings were badly affected by the fire.
The divorce affected every aspect of her life.
It's a disease which affects mainly older people.
I was deeply affected by the film (= It caused strong feelings in me).

Some people seem not to want to debate the points I think.:wall:
What we've got here is....... failure to communicate.
Some men you just can't reach.
