Feb 3 (Reuters) - A rate hike expected from the European Central Bank again in March is likely not to be the last, with the bank's fight with inflation far from over, ECB policymaker Peter Kazimir said on Friday. "I don't think the March hike will be the last. We will decide subsequently how many more will be needed," he said in a statement.
