European Central Bank (ECB) Governing Council member Madis Muller told Bloomberg on Thursday that the ECB’s monetary policy is still accommodative and they need to move further with tightening.
“Inflation calls for significant rate hikes,” Muller noted and added something similar to the last two hikes would be appropriate.
