The Latest: UK's top banker says markets see Brexit delay

LONDON (AP) — The Latest on Brexit (all times local):

9:45 a.m.

Bank of England Governor Mark Carney says financial markets appear to have taken a fairly benign view of the big defeat of Prime Minister Theresa May's Brexit deal and seem to believe Brexit may be delayed.

Addressing lawmakers on the Treasury Select Committee, Carney said Wednesday that the market reaction since Tuesday evening's vote indicates that investors think the "prospect of no deal may have diminished."

Carney made clear that wasn't necessarily his view and that he wouldn't put too much stock on short-term movements in financial markets.
