ECB caps remuneration rates for eurozone government deposits
New rate to also apply to non-monetary policy deposits, as ECB shrinks balance sheet
The European Central Bank (ECB) has re-introduced a cap on the remuneration of government deposits and non-monetary policy deposits as part of efforts to reduce its balance sheet.
The new rate, announced today (April 17), is based on the euro short-term rate (€STR) minus a spread, which was set to 20 basis points. The spread may be changed “in order to preserve the effectiveness of monetary policy transmission”, the ECB said.
