(Reuters) - The FTSE 100 edged lower on Friday, putting it on track for its first monthly fall in over a year as uncertainty over future central bank stimulus dented sentiment.

The blue-chip FTSE 100 index, which raced to a 13-year high of 6,875.62 points in late May, was down by 0.1 percent, or 5.51 points, at 6,237.89 points in mid-session trade.
