On October 28, the European Central Bank published its Monetary Policy Decisions. The central bank kept interest rates unchanged and revealed that it would continue its asset and pandemic purchase programs.

Quoting the statement: " The interest rate on the main refinancing operations and the interest rates on the marginal lending facility and the deposit facility will remain unchanged at 0.00%, 0.25% and -0.50% respectively.

Net purchases under the APP will continue at a monthly pace of €20 billion.

The Governing Council will continue to conduct net asset purchases under the PEPP with a total envelope of €1,850 billion until at least the end of March 2022 and, in any case, until it judges that the coronavirus crisis phase is over.

The Governing Council will continue to provide ample liquidity through its refinancing operations. In particular, the third series of targeted longer-term refinancing operations (TLTRO III) remains an attractive source of funding for banks, supporting bank lending to firms and households.
