The European Central Bank (ECB) purchased €63.2 of public and private debt under its quantitative-easing program in June, compared to €63.1 billion in May.
ECB Executive Board member Benoit Coeure said on May 18 that the central bank would raise the pace of asset-buying due to lower liquidity in July and August.
ECB'S asset buying programme is intended to run to September 2016.
The ECB bought €51.4 billion of government and agency bonds in June, €10.2 billion of covered bonds, and €1.59 billion of asset-backed securities.
