Stablecoins are reshaping global finance – with the US dollar at the helm. Without a strategic response, European monetary sovereignty and financial stability could erode. However, in this disruption there is also an opportunity for the euro to emerge stronger europa.eu/!YvcQfh

With #inflation stabilising at 2%, the @ecb.europa.eu's #interestrates are "in a good place" & remain unchanged. Better to wait & see how #trade tensions evolve & what that means for the #economy. Check out what's behind the #decision - visually & in #plainlanguage.

"Regimes seem enduring - until they no longer are." Could the current shift in the global #order herald a “global #euro” moment for #Europe? Yes, but only if a more #UnitedEurope takes greater control of its own destiny - which would allow the #euro to play a larger global role. on.ft.com/449uiql
This is Europe’s ‘global euro’ moment
But greater international prominence will not happen by default — it must be earned

Another 1/4 % #interestrate cut & with the @ecb.europa.eu feeling "in a good position to navigate the #uncertainty" that surrounds us in the world economy. Check out what is behind the decision and how we see the #economy & #inflation developing - in understandable terms and #plainlanguage. 👇
Today we cut our key interest rates by 0.25 percentage points.
We did this because inflation is settling at around our 2% target, while the economy is facing headwinds.

Is ‘less’ indeed ‘more’ in #centralbank #communication? Quite possibly so – when the @ecb.europa.eu communicates with #financialmarkets. This year's #ecbwatchers conference remains a place for “intellectual curiosity to challenge conventional wisdom”, as noted by @president.ecb.europa.eu Lagarde.
