Standard Chartered predicts that the European Central Bank will raise interest rates in December

Reuters, October 2 - Standard Chartered Bank expects that the European Central Bank will raise its deposit rate by 25 basis points to 2.75% at the December meeting. This marks a reversal of its previous forecast to pause interest rate hikes, citing higher-than-expected inflation, resilient economic activity, and an upward forecast for oil prices.
