European Central Bank purchases €16.19 billion of government and agency bonds last week

The European Central Bank (ECB) purchased €16.19 billion of government and agency bonds under its quantitative-easing program last week.

The ECB bought €907 million of covered bonds, and €142 million of asset-backed securities.

The ECB cut its interest rate to 0.00% from 0.05% and deposit rate to -0.4% from -0.3% at its March monetary policy meeting. The ECB also expanded its monthly purchases to €80 billion from €60 billion, to take effect in April. Purchases will include non-bank corporate debt.
