Chart of the week: Eurozone: OE real neutral rate estimates
Innes McFee
CEO
According to our new overlapping generations model, the Eurozone is stuck in secular stagnation leaving the ECB unable to hit the 2% inflation target in the foreseeable future. We find that secular demographic forces have been key to driving down real neutral interest rates. Based on our research, they hit -2% in 2018 and without a sharp increase in public debt levels or a major shift in demographics, they are likely to remain negative.
