ECB Executive Board member Isabel Schnabel said policymakers are “very worried about what is currently happening with respect to the spread of the coronavirus.” “We know that this is really raising uncertainty to a large degree, for the global growth outlook but of course also for the outlook for the euro area.”
“But what we really need to understand when we are doing monetary policy is what are the potential medium-term implications, and at the moment this is unclear”, she added.
