欧洲央行将在12月连续第三次加息75个基点，以回应管委会中更为鹰派的声音。我们认为，欧洲央行将推迟作出开始减持巨额债券决定的日期，或将日期定在2023年第二季度末或第三季度初，以回应管委会中较为鸽派的声音。
此外，欧洲央行将为减持债券或量化紧缩制定广泛的指引，包括设定每月到期债券数额上限，最初设定为每月100亿至200亿欧元。
尽管欧洲央行仍处于依据数据的模式，但似乎有可能进一步加息，而且幅度可能会放缓。

Effective virtual communication is the successful transmission and understanding of information through electronic channels in a business setting. It involves clear, concise messaging tailored to the chosen platform (email, video conferencing, etc.)  While lacking physical presence, it leverages strong writing, active listening, and professional online etiquette to build rapport and achieve goals.  This can be achieved through techniques like setting agendas, using visual aids, and employing clear nonverbal cues when on camera. By understanding these methods, professionals can bridge geographical distances and foster collaboration within the virtual landscape.

However, effective virtual communication goes beyond just technical proficiency. It requires a keen understanding of audience needs and the ability to adapt communication styles accordingly.  For instance, complex topics might necessitate a shift from email to video conferencing for real-time clarification.  Empathy also plays a crucial role, as virtual interactions can sometimes feel less personal.  Utilizing techniques like virtual icebreakers and acknowledging colleagues' contributions can help create a more positive and inclusive environment.

Effective virtual communication is an ongoing process that requires continuous development.  By embracing new technologies, seeking feedback, and refining communication strategies, professionals can become masters of the virtual landscape, fostering stronger relationships and achieving success in today's increasingly digital business world.
