The European Central Bank (ECB) decided to maintain the interest rate for bank deposits in the euro area at 2%, as inflation in the region is under control and the economy shows resilience in a global context.

The ECB also keeps the interest rates at the weekly financing auctions at 2.15%, and at overnight lending at 2.40%.
