ECB Expected to Raise Rates Thursday as Policymakers Address 10% Inflation Lesson

According to MHA economic advisor Joe Nellis, the European Central Bank is expected to raise its benchmark rate on Thursday (June 11), as policymakers act decisively to curb inflation despite concerns over weak economic growth. Nellis noted that the ECB has learned from its 2022-2023 experience, when delayed responses allowed inflation to surge above 10 percent. "Despite sluggish regional growth, the ECB is demonstrating readiness to take action," he said. Higher rates could attract foreign capital, strengthen the euro, and exert downward pressure on prices, though this may not fully offset the drag on economic expansion.
