Inside the story

Between June 2024 and June 2025 the European Central Bank cut its deposit rate eight times, from a record 4% to 2%, as inflation fell from 2.6% to below target. Yet eurozone growth remained anaemic — 0.8% in 2024, a forecast 0.9% in 2025 — with Germany on the brink of recession and US tariffs adding new headwinds. Defence spending promises a medium-term offset, but the easing cycle has exposed the limits of monetary policy alone in an economy constrained by structural divergence, weak investment and demographic decline.
