Strategy review
The ECB launched a strategy review in January 2020. The aim is to make sure our monetary policy strategy is fit for purpose, both today and in the future.
The strategy review covers all aspects of our monetary policy, within the framework of our mandate which is to maintain price stability. The review will be based on thorough analysis and take an open-minded approach.
As part of the strategy review, we want to hear opinions from across Europe, including those from citizens, academics, Members of the European Parliament and civil society organisations.
We will leave
no stone unturned
New date for ECB Listens event coming soon
The listening event hosted by President Christine Lagarde and Chief Economist Philip R. Lane with civil society organisations has been postponed for the time being. We will announce a new date in due course.
Listening events across Europe
The ECB and euro area national central banks will be hosting listening events with the general public, civil society organisations and academia. Ideas and perspectives shared at these events will feed into the strategy review.
We want your input!
Price stability matters for your everyday life, whether you are saving, borrowing, spending or investing. That is why we are here to listen to your ideas and concerns before making decisions on our future strategy. We want to collect views from across the euro area.
Have your say via the ECB Listens PortalHow are we carrying out the review?
