ECB’s Kazimir: if ECB were to pause in Sept, woulld be premature to consider it the end

Commenting on the European Central Bank (ECB) interest rate path, the central bank policymaker Peter Kazimir said on Friday, “even if we were to take break in September, it would be premature to consider it the end.”

Additional comments

We are nearing completion of monetary policy tightening.

I am still waiting for an answer to what's coming in September.

Today our mission is still not fulfilled and we should take firm step further.

We are looking for the right place to stay for a large part of next year.
