Growth slows as ECB turns tighter
"Eurozone growth would slow due to spillovers from the Middle East conflict."
"GDP growth, which reached 1.5% in 2025, would slow down to 1.0% in 2026 and 1.3% in 2027, while inflation would rebound to 3.0% in 2026 and 3.3% in 2027 (compared to 2.1% in 2025)."
"Activity would nevertheless withstand the energy shock, supported by investment in defence, AI, and electrification, which should continue to boost intra-EU trade."
"As inflation rebounds, two 25-basis-point hikes in the ECB’s policy rate would take place in 2026 – with the first hike expected in June – pushing the deposit facility rate to 2.5%."
