We will be hearing from a couple of ECB members today
Here is the agenda:
0940 GMT - ECB's Villeroy speaks in London
Villeroy will be speaking at the 23rd World Conference of Banking Institutes where he will be delivering the keynote speech on "The role of banking in a sustainable global economy". He is scheduled to speak for about 20 minutes but given the topic, I wouldn't expect much notable comments about monetary policy here.
1630 GMT - ECB's Villeroy speaks in London
Villeroy will be making a second appearance later in the day as he speaks at the LSE, focusing on the efforts needed towards building a stronger Europe, against the backdrop of Brexit, while stressing three priorities: increasing resilience, increasing growth and affirming sovereignty. The forum is expected to carry on for about 1 hour 30 minutes.
1635 GMT - ECB chief economist Philip Lane speaks in Luxembourg
Lane will be participating in a panel discussion on "The future of the international monetary system", at an event organised by the Luxembourg central bank. Not a topic that should invite much remarks about monetary policy.
1710 GMT - ECB's Coeure speaks in Luxembourg
Coeure will be attending the same event as Lane above and will be participating in a panel discussion on "Crypto-assets, central bank digital money and Libra: Implications for the international monetary system". Given the topic, the remarks to be offered will be more focused on crytocurrencies than policy.
