  • Euro Area Economic Outlook, The ECB’s Monetary Policy And Current Policy Challenges - Statement By Mario Draghi, President Of The ECB, Prepared For The Thirty-First Meeting Of The International Monetary And Financial Committee, Washington DC, 17 April 2015

Various factors are helping to boost confidence that the weak and uneven recovery experienced up to now will gain strength and breadth. The ECB has pursued its price stability mandate with determination so that inflation will return to a level below, but close to, 2% over the medium term.

    Date 17/04/2015

    These meetings provide an important opportunity to take stock of the global economy and our efforts — both individually and collectively — to achieve strong, sustainable, and balanced growth.  While the U.S. economy continues to show strength, global activity is still falling short and becoming increasingly uneven.  Policy makers in advanced and emerging economies alike must redouble efforts to boost domestic demand so we can realize our economic potential.  Surplus countries in particular are best positioned to do so.
