The European Central Bank has raised its deposit rate twice this year to 2.5%, while inflation accelerated to 3.8% last month. The combination has kept the possibility of additional rate increases in focus.
The latest inflation reading is the central development behind the debate over the ECB’s next steps. Inflation reached 3.8% last month, marking an acceleration as the central bank continues to adjust borrowing costs.
According to Dolenc, the ECB may need to deliver further rate hikes because inflation risks remain elevated. The comments point to continued attention on the central bank’s response after two rate increases this year.
The deposit rate now stands at 2.5%. That level reflects the two increases already implemented this year, but the latest inflation figure means the ECB’s policy direction remains closely linked to developments in price growth.
The available information does not indicate whether another increase has been decided. For now, the key figures are the ECB’s 2.5% deposit rate and inflation at 3.8%, alongside the warning that further hikes may be required.
