INFLATION: EUR Expectations Echo Tracking Between Baseline & Adverse Scenario

Apr-22 15:22
  • Eurozone market-based inflation expectations have continued to broadly plateau, with the 1Y trending a little lower over the past two weeks but a range of subsequent metrics from 1Y1Y to 5Y5Y keeping within steady ranges.
  • The 1Y at 3.16% (+136bp during Iran war) remains comfortably above the 2% inflation target but the 1Y1Y is still relatively well anchored at 2.24% (+49bp).
  • Notably, considering the paring of losses in European equities, there has been very limited pullback in 1Y1Y inflation expectations since the 2.31% highest close on Mar 20 (it peaked higher on Mar 23 before the delay of US strikes on Iranian infrastructure at the time).
  • The 5Y5Y is particularly well anchored meanwhile, at 2.13% for just 4bps above pre-war levels.
  • Inflation expectations at least therefore do indeed look somewhere between the ECB’s baseline and adverse scenario laid out in March, a point made by various ECB policymakers including Lagarde again earlier this week. It's likely helped by expectations of rate hikes ahead (~60bp of hikes currently vs ~40bp at the projection cut-off).
  • ECB projections saw headline inflation average 2.6% in 2026 and 2.0% in 2027, whilst adverse scenario saw headline 0.9pps higher in 2026 & 0.1pp higher in 2027 and the severe scenario saw inflation 1.8pps higher in 2027 and 2.8pps higher in 2027.
