The European Central Bank will announce its monetary policy decision on Thursday, expected to keep interest rates unchanged for the first time in over a year, awaiting clarification on the impact of U.S. President Trump's tariff measures on inflation. According to a survey of economists by the media, all respondents except for two predict that the European Central Bank will maintain the deposit rate at 2%. Most respondents still expect a further 25 basis point rate cut in September, by which time a trade agreement between the EU and the U.S. should have been reached and the latest forecasts for the Eurozone economy will also be released.
