Conclusions of the European Council meeting of 19 March 2026: extracts from the debate

Valdis DOMBROVSKIS, European Commissioner for Economy and Productivity, and European Commissioner for Implementation and Simplification, Christine LAGARDE, President of the European Central Bank (ECB) and Johan VAN OVERTVELDT (ECR, BE), Rapporteur, close the debate on the annual report 2025 on the European Central Bank’s activities and priorities. MEPs are expected to highlight the priorities they want the bank to address in the coming year. Their report is set to call for a gradual reduction in the ECB’s emergency policies, and to express regret that the ECB’s short-term lending schemes have largely replaced the private interbank funding market. MEPs are also likely to reiterate their support for the digital euro while emphasising that cash should remain important alongside digital money.
