ECB's president Lagarde: No number in mind regarding what a "significant" increase is in PEPP pace

  • PEPP pace change required Governing Council decision
  • There was a total consensus on PEPP pace decision
  • ECB is not operating mechanically
  • Convenient to decide on PEPP pace on quarterly basis
  • Governing Council not monitoring PEPP on weekly basis
  • Don't expect big PEPP rise next Monday because there are still lots of redemptions and we're just starting to implement the decision today
  • There's no reference to any kind of yield curve control; ECB is not doing yield curve control
  • ECB will see through temporary inflation spikes
  • It's possible that inflation will hit 2% by the end of 2021
  • Not looking at any particular segment of yield curve
  • ECB monitoring carefully exchange rate for inflation
  • ECB not targeting exchange rate
