From ecb.europa.eu|Feb 10, 2025|1 commentIt is a great pleasure to take part in this plenary session and discuss your draft resolution on the ECB’s Annual Report. At the ECB, we are deeply committed to transparency and accountability, particularly in how we communicate with the public and their elected representatives in the European Parliament. In fact, in the last parliamentary term we interacted with this Parliament even more frequently than in previous terms.[ 1 ] At the same time, we greatly value the opportunity to hear the Parliament’s views.

From ecb.europa.eu|Jan 27, 2025In his later years, Alexandre Lamfalussy was once asked what his fundamental motivation in life was. He recalled the experience of his turbulent youth, surrounded by the destruction caused by the Second World War.[ 1 ] “In the aftermath of the war,” Lamfalussy said, “I decided to serve the community in the rebuilding of Europe.”[ 2 ] He went on to do just that. A member of the Delors Committee and the first President of the European Monetary Institute, Lamfalussy helped pave the way for Europe’s monetary union and the establishment ...

Two recent landmark reports on the European Union's economy paint an unforgiving picture of its vulnerabilities, suggesting the region faces the prospect of "slow agony". At current productivity and demographic trends, Europe's economic output is forecast to be the same in 2050 as it is today. With much of the power to correct course residing in national capitals, what will it take for leaders to rise to the challenge?
