FRANKFURT (Reuters) – Market expectations for European Central Bank interest rate cuts are reasonable but economic conditions can still change, so there is no guarantee the bank will set rates as now expected, Croatian central bank chief Boris Vujcic said on Monday.
“There has been a repricing recently from four to five (rate cuts this year) to three to four cuts and I think it’s reasonable. I don’t feel uncomfortable with the current market pricing,” Vujcic told a webinar with LC Macro Advisors.
“Markets have to make these predictions, we don’t,” Vujcic, a member of the ECB’s Governing Council, said. “We can always wait for the data and then decide.”
