BERLIN – The European Central Bank (ECB) announced on Thursday that it will hike the key interest rates by 25 basis points. As geopolitical conflicts linger on and energy prices are hovering at high levels, the ECB raised the three key interest rates and also revised up its inflation projections for 2027 and 2028, signaling higher inflation risks. Hardly providing any guidance about its next move, the ECB is insisting on a meeting-by-meeting approach. The latest rate hike will push the interest rate on the deposit facility through which the ECB steers its monetary policy up to 2.5 percent. The interest rates on the main refinancing operations and the marginal lending facility will be increased to 2.65 percent and 2.9 percent respectively.
