FRANKFURT, ‌Dec 10 (Reuters) - The ‍European ‌Central Bank may lift its ⁠growth ‌projections again in December given the economy's unexpected ⁠resilience to uncertainty and trade ​tensions, ECB President Christine ‌Lagarde said ⁠on Wednesday.

"In the last projection exercises, we ​have upgraded our projections," Lagarde told a Financial Times event. "My suspicion ​is ‍that we ​might do that again in December."

Lagarde also repeated her mantra that monetary policy was in ⁠a 'good place', a signal taken ​by investors to mean that no interest rate change was ‌needed.
