- Series of additional longer-term refinancing operations to safeguard liquidity and money market conditions
- Operations allotted on a weekly basis and all mature on 24 June 2020 when the fourth operation of TLTRO III settles
The Governing Council of the European Central Bank (ECB) has today decided on additional longer-term refinancing operations (LTROs) to provide immediate liquidity support to banks and to safeguard money market conditions. While there are no material signs of strains in money markets or of liquidity shortages in the banking system, these operations will provide an effective backstop if necessary.
The operations will be conducted as fixed rate tender procedures with full allotment. The rate in these operations will be fixed at the average of the deposit facility rate over the life of the respective operation. Interest will be paid when the respective operation matures. All operations mature on 24 June 2020.
The operations will be conducted according to the indicative calendar below. The first operation will be announced on 16 March 2020, allotted on 17 March 2020 and settled on 18 March 2020.

The ECB stands ready to provide additional liquidity, if needed.

BOFITs prognos: Rysslands ekonomiska tillväxt 2026 ligger kvar på fjolårsnivån30.3.2026 13:00:00 EEST | Pressmeddelande
Den ekonomiska tillväxten i Ryssland saktade in till 1 % under 2025. Framför allt den svagare utvecklingen i den privata konsumtionen och i fasta investeringar hämmade den ekonomiska tillväxten, då inkomstökningen mattades av, skattebördan växte och räntorna låg på en hög nivå.

BOFIT-ennuste: Venäjän talouskasvu edellisvuoden tasolla vuonna 202630.3.2026 13:00:00 EEST | Tiedote
Venäjän talouden kasvu hidastui vuoden 2025 aikana yhteen prosenttiin. Erityisesti yksityisen kulutuksen ja kiinteiden investointien aiempaa heikompi kehitys vaimensi talouskasvua, kun palkkatulojen kasvu hidastui, verorasitus kasvoi ja korkotaso oli korkea. Vuonna 2025 nettoviennin vaikutus bruttokansantuotteen kasvuun oli negatiivinen. Vientiä painoivat viime vuonna varsinkin uudet öljysektorin pakotteet.
