ECB’s Vasle: We should keep going to neutral in measured steps
European Central Bank (ECB) Governing Council member Bostjan Vasle said on Thursday that “we should keep going to neutral in measured steps.”
Further comments
There is no urgency in discussing undershooting the target or going below neutral.
Inflation has not yet been defeated.
But recent data has been encouraging.
Once we get closer to neutral, it may be appropriate to align our language accordingly.
A soft landing with a recovery is still the baseline.
But recent data presents some risks that might delay the expected improvement to growth.
Market reaction
EUR/USD was last seen trading at 1.0791, unaffected by these above comments. The pair is up 0.10% on a daily basis.
