In terms of the rates outlook and guidance, nothing has changed as the ECB continues to preach a more data-dependent approach. They do acknowledge that inflation pressures have eased slightly as of late but are not declaring victory just yet. That fits with expectations coming into the meeting statement today.

The only notable announcement is that the central bank is going to discontinue PEPP reinvestments by the end of next year, with the intention to reduce the PEPP portfolio by €7.5 billion per month on average in 2H 2024. For now, the PEPP reinvestments will continue accordingly through 1H 2024.

Besides that, the ECB did convey some lower inflation forecasts but are still sticking with a forecast of 2.1% for 2025.
