Extend
in Early december, the ECB-board still the opkoopprogramma with nine months until the end of 2017, but the monthly amount will be decrease of 80 billion euros to 60 billion euros. By ensuring more money in the financial markets, the ECB hopes that banks more money to lend. So should the economy be promoted and the inflation will be fueled.
Knot: “My preference at the last meeting was to, in addition to the teruggeschroefde volume, also less to go on than until the end of next year. But now we have once begun, we can not abruptly stop. That gives too much turmoil in the financial markets.”
