May 14 (Reuters) - The Bank of England was "looking very hard" at alternatives to its proposed rules to regulate stablecoins, Deputy Governor Sarah Breeden told the Financial Times in an interview published on Thursday.

"So we are genuinely open to thinking whether there are other ways of achieving our objective."
