ECB's Villeroy: Trump tariffs would have limited impact on euro area inflation

  • Remarks by ECB policymaker, Francois Villeroy de Galhau
  • A 25% increase in US tariffs in Q2 would have limited impact on euro area inflation
  • But it could reduce GDP by 0.3% over the course of the full year
  • Trump is destabilising the multi-lateral system
  • That increases risks for financial order and also the climate
  • Trump's strategy is "lose-lose" in the short-term as it also harms the US economy

We'll see how much they would want to shrug it off once we move past the 2 April deadline next week. For now, next month's policy meeting is still up in the air for the ECB.
