Account of the monetary policy meeting of the Governing Council of the European Central Bank

February 21, 2019--Held in Frankfurt am Main on Wednesday and Thursday, 23-24 January 2019
1. Review of financial, economic and monetary developments and policy options
Financial market developments
Mr Cœuré reviewed the latest financial market developments. In the first few weeks of 2019 volatility had remained elevated across different market segments, in particular in equity and commodity markets.

Brent oil prices had declined further after the Governing Council's previous monetary policy meeting on 12-13 December 2018 but had since recovered. The volatility in oil prices was evidence of the heightened geopolitical uncertainty and its impact on oil supply, as well as concerns about the global growth outlook and its impact on oil demand.

Deutsche Borse increases transparency in ETF trading

February 21, 2019--New key indicator provides information on trading costs over the course of the trading day
Deutsche Börse is providing ETF investors with a new key indicator: The iXLM (intraday Xetra liquidity measure) provides information on how trading costs of an ETF have developed over the course of a trading day. This allows investors to deduce the period in which the trading costs of an ETF were particularly low and to take this information into account for future decisions.

The individual key indicator is available for all ETFs traded on Xetra.

Implicit trading costs amount to a significant part of the total trading costs. By taking the iXLM into account, investors can save on average up to 30 percent of these costs in ETF trading, depending on the time of day," says Stephan Kraus, responsible for the ETF segment at Deutsche Börse.
