ECB policymakers expect the interest rate to be lowered to 2% by the fall

According to BlockBeats, on January 3, according to the transcript released by the Bank of Greece on Thursday, ECB Governing Council member and Bank of Greece Governor Stournaras told Greece's Skai Radio: "The ECB's base interest rate should fall to around 2% around the autumn of 2025." He said that this forecast would still be affected by "unforeseen circumstances" and mentioned risk factors in Europe and the United States.

Economists and investors believe the region's economy is struggling as inflation stabilizes at its 2% target and the European Central Bank cuts interest rates at every meeting until mid-2025.
