Oxford Economics stated that the unprecedented sequence of rate hikes by the central bank "risks becoming a mistake of excessive belt-tightening that will hurt eurozone growth over the following 12 months."
The eurozone's current economic resilience provides the ECB with the perfect cover to continue aggressive rate hikes in the near future, especially as core inflation is unlikely to fall quickly, it said.
The European Central Bank moved to aggressively raise its rates last year amid seriously accelerating inflation. They were increased four times: at the July, September, October and December meetings of the regulator's governing council.
