ECB’s Rehn reaffirms June rate cut if there are no inflation setbacks

  • If June assessment confirms inflation convergence towards target, we could cut rates
  • This assumes there will be no further setbacks, for instance in geopolitics and energy prices
  • Future rate decisions will ensure that policy stays sufficiently restrictive for as long as necessary

This keeps the ECB on track for a rate cut in June, with next month’s wages data for Q1 set to solidify that outlook.
