ECB’s Nagel dismisses rate-cut talk, calls inflation ‚greedy beast‘
It is far too early to talk about cutting the European Central Bank’s interest rates as inflation is a „very greedy beast“ that is hard to beat, ECB policymaker Joachim Nagel said on Wednesday.
- „This discussion (on when interest rates can be cut) is not helpful… it is much, much too early,“ he told an event in London. „Inflation is a greedy beast, a very greedy beast,“
- „When we have to deal with a beast that is so stubborn, we have to be even more stubborn.“
