LIVE: ECB's Lagarde Holds Presser Following Monetary Policy Meeting | European Central Bank | CNBC TV18
FRANKFURT - European Central Bank (ECB) president Christine Lagarde speaks to reporters following the Governing Council's monetary policy meeting.
The European Central Bank (ECB) announced on Thursday that it lowered the interest rates on the marginal lending facility to 3.9% from 4.5% and the deposit facility, also known as the benchmark interest rate, by 25 basis points to 3.5%. The ECB also cut the interest rate on the main refinancing operations by 60 bps to 3.65%.
In June’s post-policy meeting press conference, ECB President Christine Lagarde said that "we are determined not to have a predetermined rate path. September decision is wide open." "September projections, plus other data, will be taken into account,” Lagarde added.
The accounts of the July ECB meeting showed that September “was widely seen as a good time to re-evaluate” the level of monetary policy restriction.
Since the July meeting, the Eurozone inflation cooled off significantly, returning closer to the central bank’s 2.0% target.
Eurostat's preliminary data showed on August 30 that the Harmonised Index Of Consumer Prices (HICP) across the currency bloc rose 2.2% over the year in August, marking the lowest annual inflation rate since July 2021. Meanwhile, the Euro area negotiated wages increased at an annual pace of 3.55% in Q2 2024 after rising 4.74% in the first quarter of this year.
