European Central Bank Committee Member Rene said that it is reasonable for investors to expect the European Central Bank to lower interest rates twice this year and to lower rates to 2.25% next year. He said that while it is necessary to ensure that the inflation rate returns to the level of 2%, economic activity should not be excessively suppressed. Rene said, "If you look at market data, this means that there will be two more rate cuts, so that the interest rate will reach 3.25% by the end of this year, and the final interest rate will be around 2.25% or 2.50%. In my opinion, these are all reasonable expectations."
