ECB’s Vujčić highlights stagnating Eurozone economy, peaking inflation to defend “wait and see” approach

European Central Bank (ECB) policymaker and Croatian National Bank Governor Boris Vujčić crossed wires via Bloomberg TV interview as he appeared at the Jackson Hole Symposium.

The policy maker initially highlighted the stagnating economy of the bloc and a likely peak in the inflation before defending the current monetary policy.

ECB’s Vujčić also highlighted the need to see whether rates are restrictive enough to determine the future course of action.
