ECB will keep raising interest rates, says Knot
The European Central Bank has to continue to raise borrowing costs, according to Governing Council member Klaas Knot, conceding that a slower pace of tightening could be warranted.
“We are certainly not done with interest-rate hikes,” the Dutch central bank chief told the NRC newspaper in an interview. “Core inflation in the euro zone is now almost 6%, and you can’t fight that with an interest rate of 3%.”
