An illuminated euro sign is seen in front of the headquarters of the European Central Bank (ECB) in the late evening in Frankfurt January 8, 2013. The cost of living in the euro zone rose more than expected in December but remained benign enough to allow a possible cut in interest rates in 2013 to support the bloc’s feeble economy. The ECB’s Governing Council meets on Jan. 10, with policymakers appearing unwilling to countenance a rate cut so early in the year. REUTERS/Kai Pfaffenbach (GERMANY – Tags: BUSINESS POLITICS)
