ECB's Lane sees no limit yet to further rate cuts

NEW YORK (Reuters) - The European Central Bank is not yet approaching the limit to how far it can cut its deposit rate without hurting lending or triggering a dash to cash, the ECB's chief economist Philip Lane said on Friday.

"We've seen more negative rates elsewhere so I don't particularly think there's a technical limit yet," Lane told a Reuters event in New York.
