European Central Bank held its reference rate at 0.75% and Bank of England kept its benchmark rate at 0.5% and did not expand its bond buying program.
European Central Bank held its benchmark rate at 0.75% and acknowledged that the first response to impose a tax on small bank deposits was “not smart, to say the least.”
The head of the E.C.B., Mario Draghi stressed at the press conference that Cyprus was “no template” for future crises and events in Cyprus and subsequent market calm only reinforces “we are now in a position to cope with serious crises without them becoming systemic.”
The Bank of England left its key lending rate at 0.5% and held its bond buying program at 375 billion pounds. The rates have been on hold since March 2009.
