Interview With Reuters - Interview With Isabel Schnabel, Member Of The Executive Board Of The ECB, Conducted By Balazs Koranyi And Frank Siebelt On 28 August 2020 And Published On 31 August 2020

Date 31/08/2020

Could you please update us on your assessment of economic developments over the summer?

We now have the numbers for the second quarter and they showed a decline in GDP of 12.1% (quarter-on-quarter). That’s of course very large, but it’s close to our projection of -13%. If you look at incoming data, by and large they support the baseline of our June projections. It remains the case that uncertainty is exceptionally high. But overall, I believe that we are still close to the baseline. That means we expect a strong rebound in the third quarter, even if that rebound will not be strong enough to put us back to where we started. So, there will be a protracted recovery, much in line with what we projected in June.
