Lagarde: Decisive action in other policy areas to support the recovery remains essential. The strength of Europe’s crisis response depended and still depends on the strength of national and European responses across all policy areas: monetary, fiscal, supervisory and regulatory.

Lagarde: The PEPP is not the only tool we are using to support favourable financing conditions during the pandemic period. The third series of targeted longer-term refinancing operations (TLTRO III) remains an attractive source of funding for banks.
European Central Bank Thu 18 Mar 2021 08:18

Lagarde: One year after the successful launch of the pandemic emergency purchase programme (PEPP), purchases will be conducted at a significantly higher pace over the next quarter than during the first months of 2021, in order to prevent a tightening of financing conditions.
European Central Bank Thu 18 Mar 2021 08:18

Lagarde: Preserving favourable financing conditions over the pandemic period remains essential to reduce uncertainty and bolster confidence, thereby underpinning economic activity and safeguarding medium-term price stability.

The rapid rise in risk-free interest rates risked withdrawing policy support in the euro area prematurely, says Executive Board member @Isabel_Schnabel. The ECB will tolerate higher interest rates only if they do not endanger the economic recovery. 1/2 https://t.co/TiIdbG6rAm

Lane: We need to make sure that yield curves – which play an important role in determining overall financing conditions – do not move ahead of the economy. This is a shift in monetary policy away from focusing on just the short-term rate by looking at all financing conditions 2/3

Monetary and fiscal support can be quite extensive as it is only for a short period of time, says Chief Economist Philip R. Lane to the @FinancialTimes. It is important that we don’t amplify the temporary losses in the pandemic by being too reluctant with our policy support. https://t.co/HA1JxZqjAD

Panetta: The steepening in the nominal GDP-weighted yield curve we have been seeing is unwelcome and must be resisted. We should not hesitate to increase the volume of purchases and to spend the entire PEPP envelope or more if needed 4/5
European Central Bank Tue 02 Mar 2021 14:06

Panetta: By keeping nominal yields low for longer, we can provide a strong anchor to preserve favourable financing conditions. Improvements in the outlook will lower real interest rates, supporting confidence in a sustained return of inflation to our aim 3/5
European Central Bank Tue 02 Mar 2021 14:06

Panetta: We will still face two prominent gaps that we need to close: the output gap and the inflation gap. And if we fail to do so with sufficient force we could inadvertently hold back economic growth and depress inflation for years to come 2/5
