ECB Likely to Hike Rates in 2027, BNP Paribas Says

Sam Lynton-Brown from BNP Paribas Markets 360 says European Central Bank interest rates are "in a good place right now," but expects the next ECB move to be an increase rather than a cut. "The hike isn't going to come quickly, we think it's a 2027 story," Lynton-Brown tells Bloomberg Television. He adds European growth in 2026 "can surprise materially on the upside," driven in particular by German fiscal expectations. (Source: Bloomberg)
