Meanwhile, economic data confirmed that consumer prices in the Euro Area rose in March by the most in over a year, while the core index eased to a three-month low. Earlier this week, ECB Vice President Luis de Guindos told the European Parliament's committee on monetary affairs that the central bank will act on any "detrimental" rise in borrowing costs until the coronavirus pandemic is over. The policymaker also said that broad economic activity should pick up strongly in the second half of this year thanks to vaccinations, the easing of confinement measures and monetary and fiscal policy support in the Euro Area. Still, he also warned that the recovery is expected to be fragile.
