ECB’s Holzmann: If things continue as they are, further action will be needed beyond July

  • Has no view on what should happen with rates beyond July
  • But if things continue as they are, then further action will be needed
  • Key question will be how persistent core inflation is

They are not pre-committing to a September rate hike but they aren’t ruling it out either at this point. A July rate hike is pretty much in the bag already and we can only know more about what comes after the summer in the weeks ahead.
