The European Central Bank should not consider raising its 2% price stability target in order to account for the potentially inflationary effects of green transition costs, ECB Executive Board member Frank Elderson said on Wednesday.

Climate change is already a factor in the ECB's assessment of inflation risks, Elderson told an MNI Connect livestreamed event.
