00:00I have just informed my fellow policymakers and staff at the European Central Bank that I will be stepping down
00:07with effect on February 7, 2027, after Monetary Policy Governing Council.
00:14It has been a great pride and a huge privilege to serve this institution, and I want to thank all
00:21those who have contributed, supported, and delivered on the mission that we have in Europe.
00:27Be a rock, be solid, deliver price stability, financial stability, and I think that I leave this institution with a
00:37sense of good work done and an ECB that is fit for the future.
