Description

This event tracks the European Central Bank's interest rate decision during its scheduled meeting, focusing on potential changes to its primary policy rate. The outcome depends on whether the bank raises, lowers, or maintains the rate by specific margins. Outcomes are determined solely by the official announcement made at the scheduled meeting.

Kalshi

The event resolves based on the official policy rate decision announced by the European Central Bank at its October Governing Council monetary policy meeting. Only changes to the primary policy rate are considered; markets resolve to Yes only if the announced action exactly matches the specified basis point range for that market (Cut more than 25bps, Cut 1-25bps, Maintain current rate, Hike 1-25bps, or Hike more than 25bps). If the meeting is cancelled or delayed past the expiration date, the “Maintain current rate” market resolves to Yes and all others resolve to No. Emergency rate changes occurring outside of scheduled meetings do not affect resolution. The basis point ranges are inclusive, meaning that, for example, a 25bp cut would satisfy both the “Cut more than 25bps” and “Cut 1-25bps” markets.
