ECB's Holzmann: Uncertainty is now significantly smaller

European Central Bank (ECB) policymaker Robert Holzmann told The Financial Times on Friday that the monetary policy is on a good trajectory, per Reuters.

Holzmann further noted that October might not be the right time for another rate cut but added that there could be room for a reduction in rates in December. "The uncertainty is now significantly smaller," he said and explained that the economic activity is increasingly in line with the ECB's forecasts.
