ECB leaves rates unchanged at -0.50% as expected

On Thursday, the European Central Bank’s (ECB) governing council decided to keep its benchmark deposit rate at -0.50%, as unanimously expected by market participants. The bank also said that it intends to raise interest rates by 25 bps at the July meeting, after having ended its Asset Purchase Programme (APP) on 1 July. The ECB added that a larger than 50 bps rate hike might be appropriate at the September meeting.
