ECB did not ‘discuss rate cuts’: Lagarde

European Central Bank governors did not “discuss rate cuts at all” at their meeting on Thursday, said president Christine Lagarde, warning policymakers should not “lower our guard” in fighting inflation.

“Should we lower our guard? No, we should absolutely not lower our guard,” Lagarde told a press conference, as the central bank sought to douse growing market hopes of early drops in interest rates next year.
