European Central Bank  lowered the key cash deposit rate by a quarter-point to 3.75 per cent on Thursday, as expected.


Lagarde told reporters that the inflation outlook has improved “markedly” and said there’s a “strong likelihood” that the ECB is shifting into a “dialling-back phase”. But she declined to confirm that such a change of gear has now happened.
