The European Central Bank updated its wage tracker with agreements signed through August and extended its forward-looking horizon through June 2027. The tracker indicates negotiated wage growth of 2.7% in the first quarter of 2027 and 2.8% in the second quarter. The ECB said coverage is 32.5% of employees in the first quarter and 25.1% in the second, and cautioned that the forward-looking component is conditional on agreements currently available and subject to revision.
