Ken Orchard, Portfolio Manager, European Fixed Income, T. Rowe Price (19.02.2015):
"We believe there are some potential positive effects from the ECB’s asset purchases programme that could boost the Eurozone economy in the second half of 2015. Firstly, the euro is substantially weaker against almost all currencies this year. This should help boost Eurozone exports as a weaker currency makes them cheaper abroad.
Another potential impact from the ECB’s action is that it could take a lot of sovereign debt off banks’ balance sheets. Consequently, in order to maintain their profit margins, banks would be forced to increase lending to the private sector. Such a development could boost investment.
Overall, we expect the ECB’s action to continue to be supportive for riskier assets in Europe as government bond yields are likely to remain at low levels. As a result, investors in search of higher yielding assets could head further down the credit-quality curve in bond markets. Alternatively, they could decide to invest more of their money in stock markets, thus driving up European share prices."
