ECB’s Rehn: Time is ripe in June to ease the monetary policy stance
European Central Bank (ECB) policymaker Olli Rehn spoke about the timings of the central bank’s interest rate cut on Monday.
Key quotes
Inflation is converging to our 2% target in a sustained way, and the time is thus ripe in June to ease the monetary policy stance and start cutting rates.
This obviously assumes that the disinflationary trend will continue and there will be no further setbacks in the geopolitical situation and energy prices.
Market reaction
The above comments fail to move the needle around the EUR/USD pair, as it gyrates around 1.0850, at the time of writing.
