Release of the Monetary Policy Report

Opening statement by Mr Tiff Macklem, Governor of the Bank of Canada and Ms Carolyn Rogers, Senior Deputy Governor of the Bank of Canada, at the press conference following the monetary policy decision, Ottawa, Ontario, 28 October 2026.

The Governing Council of the European Central Bank (ECB) decided to keep the three key interest rates unchanged during their latest monetary policy statement. While energy prices continue to rise, posing upside risks to inflation and downside risks to growth, underlying inflation has remained stable so far, and wages have not shown a material response.

The ECB emphasized its commitment to ensuring inflation stabilises at its two per cent target in the medium term and highlighted its readiness to navigate the elevated uncertainty through a data-dependent and meeting-by-meeting approach.
