BOCA RATON, FLORIDA, UNITED STATES, June 11, 2024 /EINPresswire.com/ — The European Central Bank (ECB) announced a widely anticipated reduction in interest rates, marking the first cut since 2019. This decision, taken during the ECB’s meeting, comes despite persistent inflationary pressures within the 20-nation eurozone.
The central bank’s key rate has been reduced to 3.75%, down from the record 4% where it has stood since September 2023. The ECB Governing Council explained the move in a statement: “Based on an updated assessment of the inflation outlook, the dynamics of underlying inflation and the strength of monetary policy transmission, it is now appropriate to moderate the degree of monetary policy restriction after nine months of holding rates steady.”
In its updated macroeconomic projections, ECB staff increased their annual average headline inflation outlook for 2024 to 2.5%, up from the previous 2.3%. Similarly, the 2025 forecast has been raised to 2.2% from 2%, while the 2026 projection remains at 1.9%.
The money markets had fully priced in the 25 basis point reduction ahead of the June meeting, reflecting broad expectations among investors and economists. The last interest rate cut was in September 2019, during which the deposit facility was in negative territory.
