The ECB Podcast Summer School #2: the nuts and bolts of interest rates
Listen now
Description
We’ve been raising interest rates to bring down inflation. How does that work? Are we already seeing the impact on prices? And is this the end of super-low rates? Our host Katie Ranger puts these questions to Chief Economist Philip R. Lane in the second episode of our Summer School mini-series. The views expressed are those of the speakers and not necessarily those of the European Central Bank. Published on 11 August 2023 and recorded on 27 July 2023.
