Olli Rehn, a Finnish ECB policymaker, expressed optimism in a recent blog post, suggesting that inflation is expected to decrease further, aided by potential interest rate cuts over the next few years, possibly ranging from 1 to 2 percentage points. Rehn emphasized that this outlook is contingent on the absence of new economic shocks, clarifying that these remarks do not constitute official policy predictions.


"In Frankfurt, we shared positive economic updates yesterday, noting a notable easing of inflationary pressures and highlighting how interest rate reductions are bolstering growth recovery," Rehn wrote.


Last Thursday, the European Central Bank implemented its first interest rate cut since 2019, reducing the deposit rate from a record high of 4.0% to 3.75%. Despite acknowledging ongoing challenges, including inflation, the ECB did not indicate whether further easing measures might follow in July.
