The European Central Bank (ECB) announced a quarter-point interest rate cut to 3.75%, marking its first reduction in five years amidst inflation concerns arising from the COVID-19 pandemic and Russia's Ukraine invasion.
Inflation is projected to hit 2.5% in 2024 compared to the ECB's prior forecast of 2.3%, with expectations for it to decrease to 2.2% in 2025 and 1.9% in 2026.
