GERMANY-FINANCE-ECB-EUROZONE
A car drives near the European Central Bank (ECB) headquarters (R) and other high-rise buildings in the banking district in Frankfurt am Main, western Germany, on April 29, 2026, one day before the meeting on the Eurozone's monetary policy. Inflation expectations are closely watched by the ECB, which is mulling whether it needs to hike interest rates if consumer prices rise faster due to the US-Israeli war against Iran.
The ECB holds its next meeting on Thursday, April 30, and although it is expected to hold rates steady again for now as it waits for the impact of the conflict to become clearer, there will be sharp focus on President Lagarde's press conference for whatever clues she gives about the bank's outlook.
