ECB concerned economic outlook too murky to decide on recalibrating APP in March - Reuters
|European Central Bank policymakers are increasingly concerned that the economic outlook has become too murky for a comprehensive policy decision to be reached in December, according to Reuters citing sources. According to the sources, policymakers agree that the PEPP should end as scheduled in March, but any decision on recalibrating the APP may need to wait. Some ECB members have reportedly advocated delaying any decision on the APP until February, or to make only a short-term commitment in December, the sources said.
