ECB's Muller: 75 bps should be among options for September hike – Reuters

"I think 75 basis points should be among the options for September given that the inflation outlook has not improved," European Central Bank (ECB) Governing Council member Madis Muller told Reuters on Tuesday.

"Still, I’m going into the meeting with an open mind and I want to both see the new projections and hear my colleague’s arguments," Muller added.
