Germany's Ifo asks for rate cut

BBC

Influential German think-tank Ifo is calling for a cut in eurozone interest rates following indications that the country's recovery is in trouble.
Ifo's business climate index, closely watched as a barometer of the health of German businesses, fell for the second straight month in March.

This, Ifo president Hans-Werner Sinn said, showed that Germany's recovery was "clearly at risk".

"The time has come to cut interest rates in Europe," he said.

The board of the European Central Bank - which sets rates for the 12-nation eurozone - meets next on 1 April, amid speculation that it might finally drop rates below the current 2% set last June.
