ECB’s Stournaras says We need to start cutting interest rates soon

by Elena

European Central Bank (ECB) Governing Council member Yannis Stournaras emphasized the urgency of initiating key rate reductions soon, asserting his disagreement with the notion that the ECB must await action from the Federal Reserve before adjusting rates, according to Bloomberg reports on Thursday.

Stournaras advocated for a proactive approach to monetary policy, cautioning against excessive tightening measures. He further advocated for the implementation of two rate cuts before the summer recess.
