The conclusion revealed on Friday in the IMF's annual assessment of the UK economy also warned about the rise of housing prices because of the possibility of "leaving some households vulnerable to income and interest rate shocks".
Inflation, now at minus 0.1 per cent annually, should gradually return to its 2 per cent target.
But the report says the planned referendum on EU membership injects an element of uncertainty into the picture.
