Key quotes

Our meeting on Sept. 12 should in my view take action.

It would be fair and wise to decide on a new rate cut.

I’m calling for active and pragmatic gradualism, which means being guided both by data — observed inflation — but also expectations and forecasts.

The market expects interest rates in the euro area next year between 2% and 2.5%.
