ECB's Schnabel: Monetary policy has had a weaker impact on dampening demand for services
|European Central Bank (ECB) executive board member Isabel Schnabel is speaking about the Payment Methods Survey of Companies in Switzerland 2023 on Friday.
She said that “monetary policy has had a weaker impact on dampening demand for services.”
“We're starting to see that firms are beginning to absorb higher costs into their profit margins,” Schnabel added.
The policymaker went on to say that she is “confident that risks of de-anchoring of inflation expectations have come down.”
