The European Central Bank won’t increase borrowing costs again, unless there is an unexpected event, according to Governing Council member Francois Villeroy de Galhau.
“Excluding surprises, I don’t think the ECB will raise rates again,” Villeroy said on France 5 television. “A gradual reduction in rates will come one day, but we’re not there yet.”
