European Central Bank executive board member Escriba: Inflation expectations have not yet shown any significant changes.

European Central Bank (ECB) board member Isabel Schnabel said on Wednesday that inflation expectations in the euro area have "not shown significant changes", but the ECB should continue to closely monitor this indicator and other latest data to provide a basis for policy decisions. She said during the spring meetings of the International Monetary Fund and the World Bank, "What is more important now is to focus on the latest data and their interpretation, rather than forecast data."
