Frankfurt (ots) – “We waited a long time for this step by the ECB, which had no alternative
waited. Finally she has acknowledged the reality and the long overdue one
brought about a turnaround in interest rates. Already in July 2021 we met with the
former constitutional judge Prof. Paul Kirchhof for the end of
Negative interest rate policy used and our demands on politicians, the ECB and
Bundesbank, approached. Today we are facing the consequences of the failure of the ECB
Interest rate policy – massive inflation with implications for the economy and
society in uncertain times. Your only mission, price stability
to ensure that the ECB has violated. Now she’s sending an overdue signal
for the normalization of monetary policy. Our customers benefit from the
Interest rate development, the custody fees at the Sparda banks are timely
abolished. But one thing should be clear from now on: such a violation of the
core mandate of the ECB must not be repeated,” said the CEO
of the Association of Sparda Banks, Florian RENTSCH.
