Monetary policy is a field of economics where women are underrepresented. But that is changing, as I saw today when I met a group of women who are members of the Eurosystem Monetary Policy Committee. Check out this video where they talk about their work youtube.com/watch?v=cobFJx…

I am very saddened to learn of the passing of Stanley Fischer - an exceptional economist, thoughtful leader and a mentor to many. His wisdom shaped generations of policymakers and strengthened global cooperation. My thoughts are with his family and loved ones.

Today we cut our key interest rates by 0.25 percentage points. We did this because inflation is settling at around our 2% target, while the economy is facing headwinds.

Most measures of underlying inflation suggest that inflation will settle at around our 2% medium-term target on a sustained basis, said President Christine Lagarde after the Governing Council decided to cut interest rates by 0.25 percentage points.

We stand ready to adjust all of our instruments within our mandate to ensure that inflation stabilises sustainably at our medium-term target, said President Christine Lagarde, after being asked whether the fight against inflation has been won.

In a fragmenting world, regions need to work together to sustain global trade, a driver of prosperity. Today’s geopolitical landscape makes this harder, but by learning from the past, we all can draw a new map for global cooperation.

🇦🇹🇪🇺 We remember the victims of the horrible attack in Graz. Such heinous acts of violence have no place in our society, especially in schools. The victims and their families are in our thoughts, and we wish them strength during this difficult time.
