ECB Economic Bulletin

Vai alla versione italiana Site Search

In 2015 the ECB Economic Bulletin replaced the ECB Monthly Bulletin. The Economic Bulletin is published two weeks after each of the monetary policy meetings of the ECB Governing Council, which have been held at six-weekly intervals since January 2015. With the Economic Bulletin the ECB fulfils its obligation to publish reports on the activities of the ESCB at least once every quarter, as per Article 15.1 of the Statute of the ESCB.

Issues published after the monetary policy meetings in March, June, September and December provide a comprehensive analysis of economic and monetary developments, including a discussion of the Eurosystem/ECB staff macroeconomic projections for the euro area. Other issues are shorter and provide an interim update on developments in key monthly indicators.

Each issue of the Economic Bulletin includes boxes and articles, as well as a statistical section.
