ECB nagoveštava ali ne menja kamate. Kamatne stope i dalje na nepromenjenom nivou – osnovna 0,00%, na kredite 0,25%, na depozite -0,40%. Takav nivo će se, prema očekivanjima, nastaviti do sredine 2019. godine s ciljem da se održava inflacija na nivou oko 2%, u srednjem roku. Prema najavama ECB će nastaviti program kupovine aktive (APP) sa trenutnim mesečnim tempom od 30 milijardi evra, s tim da program do decembra 2018. godine podrazumeva dvostruko niže iznose kupovina (15 milijardi evra mesečno).
The ECB hints but does not change interest rates. Interest rates remain unchanged – basic 0.00%, on loans 0.25%, on deposits -0.40%. This level is expected to continue until mid-2019 with the aim of maintaining inflation at around 2% in the medium term. According to the announcements, the ECB will continue the asset purchase program (APP) with the current monthly rate of 30 billion euros, with the program until December 2018 implying double the amount of purchases (15 billion euros per month).
