  • Full statement

Apart from lower revisions to inflation and economic growth projections, the language in the statement is very much the same. The shift lower in the projections just reflects the idea that the ECB is setting up for rate cuts in the months ahead. Besides that, there isn’t anything in the forward guidance that is new or suggests and explicit bias to cutting rates – at least for now.

EUR/USD is down slightly though after the softer economic projections, from around 1.0895 earlier to 1.0880 currently. It’s over to Lagarde next.
