Frank Elderson, member of the Executive Board of the European Central Bank (ECB) and Vice-Chair of the Supervisory Board of the central bank, said in a media interview on Thursday, “we must reduce the very high rate of inflation.”
“The rate increase decision made in March was robust.”
“We are not pre-empting future decisions.”
“The ECB will reduce its bond holdings in a balanced manner.”
