The aim of the ECB's strategy review was to make sure our monetary policy strategy is fit for purpose, both today and in the future.

The strategy review covered all aspects of our monetary policy within the framework of our mandate, which is to maintain price stability.

We listened to opinions from across Europe, including those from citizens, academics, Members of the European Parliament and civil society organisations.
