Monetary Policy and Financial Stability

Central banks around the world have increased interest rates rapidly and significantly in the last 18 months to fight fast-growing inflation. Tighter monetary policy is now biting, and inflation is starting to decrease, however the uncertainty is still high with a sizeable impact on the stock and bond markets fluctuations. Consequently, central banks are now expected to start decreasing rates soon or keeping them higher for longer.

While the evolution of the key indicators are pointing towards a reduction of the price growth, it is however very much discussed currently whether these signs can be interpreted as indicators for the medium / long term. The event will contribute to deep dive on the dynamics of inflation and thus to the understanding of the potential future evolution of monetary policy in the Euro area.
