The European Central Bank reduced its key interest rates by 25 basis points, as expected, due to the slowing euro area growth driven by weak demand and persistently high core inflationary pressures, thanks to the stickiness of services inflation. The Governing Council, led by ECB President Christine Lagarde, lowered the deposit facility rate to 3.50% as the new policy rate. The bank also announced that the spread between the interest rate on the main refinancing operations and the deposit facility rate will be set at 15 basis points, effective September 18. The interest rates on the main refinancing operations and the marginal lending facility will be decreased to 3.65% and 3.90%, respectively. "Based on the Governing Council's updated assessment of the inflation outlook, the dynamics of underlying inflation, and the strength of monetary policy transmission, it is now appropriate to take another step in moderating the degree of monetary policy restriction," the ECB said. The ECB also observed that domestic inflation remains high as wages are still rising at an elevated pace. However, the labor cost pressures are moderating, and profits are partially buffering the impact of higher wages on inflation, the bank added. Furthermore, financing conditions remain restrictive, and economic activity is still subdued, reflecting weak private consumption and investment. 09/12/2024 - 09:40:00 (RTTNews)
