Meeting of 29-30 April 2026 Account of the monetary policy meeting of the Governing Council of the European Central Bank
May 28, 2026-1. Review of financial, economic and monetary developments and policy options-Financial market developments
Ms Schnabel started her presentation by noting that since the Governing Council's previous monetary policy meeting on 18-19 March 2026, movements in euro area financial markets had continued to be driven by developments in the Middle East and their impact on energy prices. Amid elevated volatility, markets continued to expect the oil price shock to be persistent.
Although upside risks had moderated, oil was priced significantly higher, over an extended period of time, than it had been before the start of the war in the Middle East. As a result, markets continued to price in a notable and sustained inflationary impact. Inflation fixings had increased further for both 2026 and 2027. This suggested that investors anticipated some indirect or second-round effects extending beyond the first year of the conflict, before inflation was expected to return to the target of 2% in 2028. At the same time, markets continued to expect the economy to be relatively resilient. Prices of risk assets, including equities, as well as sovereign and corporate bond spreads, and the exchange rate of the euro had moved back towards the levels observed prior to the conflict.

France: Staff Concluding Statement of the 2026 Article IV Mission
May 21, 2026--The French economy continued to expand at a moderate pace in 2025, despite domestic and external shocks, but new headwinds from the war in the Middle East are starting to weigh on activity. The authorities' response to the energy shock has so far been appropriate and should remain limited, temporary, and targeted towards the most vulnerable, while preserving market incentives and containing fiscal costs.
High public debt and rising spending pressures underscore the need to advance the consolidation effort, in line with the Medium Term Fiscal Structural Plan and EU rules, building on the 2025 fiscal overperformance. The upcoming electoral cycle provides an opportunity for France to articulate a credible, well-defined multi-year strategy to support fiscal consolidation and unlock growth potential.

United Kingdom: Staff Concluding Statement of the 2026 Article IV Mission
May 18, 2026-While the UK economy has remained resilient in recent years, the war in the Middle East is dampening near-term prospects. Growth is projected to slow to 1.0 percent this year, then gradually recover as the shock dissipates. Higher energy prices are expected to push inflation up temporarily and delay the return to the central bank's target by about one year.
Monetary policy should remain sufficiently restrictive to ensure that second-round effects from higher energy prices to inflation are contained. Under the current energy price outlook, holding rates for the remainder of the year should be sufficient to bring inflation back to target by end-2027. But given heightened uncertainty, decisions should remain data dependent and taken meeting by meeting, with clear communication on the Bank of England's reaction function.
The authorities' medium-term fiscal strategy continues to strike a good balance between deficit reduction and growth-friendly spending, and recent changes to the fiscal framework strengthen policy stability and credibility.
