Eurozone inflation is expected to slow down, providing support for the European Central Bank to cut interest rates

The survey shows that due to the impact of the U.S. tariffs, the inflation rate in the Eurozone is expected to slow down compared to previous forecasts, which will support the European Central Bank's interest rate cut this week. Analysts expect the average CPI increase in the Eurozone to be 1.9% in 2026 and 2% in 2027, both down by 0.1 percentage points from previous forecasts. They also expect the economy to grow by 0.8% this year, slightly lower than before, with growth momentum expected to strengthen thereafter
