Draghi: No one received more funding because of Spanish collateral “mistake”

  • Audit committee to asses collateral use
  • ECB sees no signs of deflation
  • Normal price adjustments are welcome
  • Monetary policy already very accomodative; real interest rates negative in large parts of euro area
  • Stand ready to act with standard monetary policy instruments
  • Profits from Greek SMP go to local central banks; up to governments to decide; the ECB is by-and-large done with Greek debt
  • Return of LTRO funding will shrink ECB balance sheet; not a matter of concern
  • There has been no inflation from LTROs
