Posted af John Yde, 02/03/2023
Den europæiske centralbank (ECB) har udsendt referat af det pengepolitiske møde, der blev afholdt i starten af februar, og som resulterede i en 0,5% renteforhøjelse. Det forventes også at blive tilfældet på næste møde, som afholdes 16. marts, jvnf. følgende afsnit fra mødereferatet:
Against this background, broad support was expressed for Mr Lane’s proposal to raise the key ECB interest rates by 50 basis points and to communicate that the Governing Council expected to raise them further, indicating specifically that it intended to raise rates by another 50 basis points at the next monetary policy meeting in March and would then evaluate the subsequent policy path. Indeed, further increases were required for the Governing Council’s policy rates to enter restrictive territory, and it was necessary to keep them at levels that were sufficiently restrictive to ensure a timely return of inflation to the 2% medium-term target.
