Il Tempo: Lagarde (Bce): Tassi fermi al 2%. Siamo ben posizionati per navigare incertezza da crisi in Iran

(Agenzia Vista) Frankfurt, 19 marzo 2026 “Il Consiglio della Bce è determinato ad assicurare che l'inflazione si stabilizzi sul target del 2% nel medio termine, a dispetto dei rischi associati alla crisi in Medioriente ed alle pesanti ripercussioni dei prezzi dell'energia. La guerra in Medioriente ha reso le prospettive economiche significativamente più incerte, creando rischi al rialzo per l'inflazione e rischi al ribasso per la crescita economica. Il conflitto avrà un impatto sostanziale sull'inflazione. L'economia si è confermata resiliente negli ultimi trimestri e le aspettative sui prezzi si confermano ben ancorate. La guerra in Iran ha già avuto impatto sui redditi reali e sulla fiducia e potrebbe essere ancora più grave”, così la Presidente della Bce Christine Lagarde.

Lagarde (ECB): Rates remain at 2%. We are well positioned to navigate uncertainty from the Iran crisis.

(Agenzia Vista) Frankfurt, March 19, 2026 “The ECB Council is determined to ensure that inflation stabilizes at the 2% target in the medium term, despite the risks associated with the crisis in the Middle East and the heavy repercussions of energy prices. The war in the Middle East has made economic prospects significantly more uncertain, creating upside risks to inflation and downside risks to economic growth. The conflict will have a substantial impact on inflation. The economy has proven resilient in recent quarters and inflation expectations remain well anchored. The war in Iran has already impacted real incomes and confidence and could be even more serious,” said ECB President Christine Lagarde. Ebs Source: Agenzia Vista / Alexander Jakhnagiev

Another case of one law for the elite & another for the rest of us.

Christine Lagarde is paid €140k as board member of the Bank of International Settlements, in addition to her European Central Bank salary, while 'normal' ECB employees are banned from getting additional income from other work.

As you can imagine the staff at the ECB are not very impressed; not least because other BIS board members do not take the pay, or see it offset against their salary!
