FRANKFURT (Reuters) – The European Central Bank must keep its policy sufficiently easy even after the damage wrought by the coronavirus pandemic is repaired to ensure euro zone inflation heads back to its 2% target, chief economist Philip Lane said on Tuesday.
“Once we have returned towards the pre-pandemic inflation path, we have to ensure that our monetary policy stance is appropriately calibrated in order to ensure timely and robust convergence to our medium-term inflation aim,” Lane told an online conference.
