About this desk
Italy has no separate policy rate here. The Italy desk leads with the ECB deposit facility rate and €STR, the shared euro-area policy and overnight market series, then UK and US rates. Italy's monetary policy is set by the ECB Governing Council, so the desk uses the euro-area series rather than a Banca d'Italia policy rate that would misrepresent the framework.
Germany, France, Ireland and the /ea/ desk carry the same two ECB series. The figures come from the ECB Data Portal and are republished with attribution under the ESCB statistics reuse policy. Every desk shows the same series in a different order, so switching desks changes the menu and wording, not the numbers. The build ingests no Italian retail rate series, so none is shown. This is not financial advice, and readings may lag their source.
