Christine Lagarde: BCE nu poate evalua evoluția viitoare a ratelor dobânzilor - Economica.net

The European Central Bank raised interest rates by 25 basis points, with future changes depending on economic data, particularly inflation. ECB President Christine Lagarde noted that inflation is expected to remain above target due to the ongoing conflict in Iran. The deposit rate is now at 2.5%, while the weekly operations rate and marginal lending facility rate have also increased. Lagarde mentioned improved short-term growth prospects, reflecting resilience in private consumption and public spending.
