  Su función principal es mantener la inflación cercana al 2%, y todos
los demás objetivos están subordinados a esta tarea.

  "The primary objective of the European Central Bank is to maintain
price stability within the Eurozone, which is the same as keeping
inflation low. The Governing Council in October 1998[9] defined price
stability as inflation of around 2%, “a year-on-year increase in the
Harmonised Index of Consumer Prices (HICP) for the euro area of below
2%” and added that price stability ”was to be maintained over the
medium term”. (Harmonised Index of Consumer Prices)[10] Unlike for
example the United States Federal Reserve Bank, the ECB has only one
primary objective with other objectives subordinate to it. The
Governing Council confirmed this definition in May 2003 following a
thorough evaluation of the ECB’s monetary policy strategy. On that
occasion, the Governing Council clarified that “in the pursuit of
price stability, it aims to maintain inflation rates below but close
to 2% over the medium term”.[9] All lending to credit institutions
must be collateralised as required by Article 18 of the Statute of the
ESCB."

  Saludetes,
