To reach the primary goal, which is maintaining price stability by a Harmonized Index of Consumer Prices near but below two percent, the Central Bank utilizes some contentious policies like the Outright Monetary Transactions and the Asset-Purchase Program, in particular in the financial market. The author delineated the main interventions of the ECB since October 2008. Furthermore, the writer used the IS-LM-Model to demonstrate the abstract impact of expansive monetary policy. Finally, he expanded on the main points of criticism, which were the allegation of clientele politics against the European Central Bank and the possible violation of its mandate due to the Outright Monetary Transactions. For this, the author outlined the arguments of both sides. Concluding, the author assessed, involving the current economic situation in the European system, that the monetary policy of the ECB supported the recovery of the financial sector and the members of the EU.
