Quantitative Easing: What will it mean for the eurozone?

Available for over a year

The European Central Bank (ECB) is expected to announce it will inject up to €1 trillion into the eurozone economy. The ECB could purchase government bonds worth up to €50bn (£38bn) per month until the end of 2016. Creating new money to buy government debt, or quantitative easing (QE), should reduce the cost of borrowing. Chief Market Strategist for the UK and Europe at J.P. Morgan Asset Management, Stephanie Flanders, explains how this could help how investors view the strength of the economy in Europe.
