FRANKFURT, March 22 (Reuters) - Financial market turmoil may turn out to be a non-event for monetary policy or could affect the outlook at the margin but a full-blown crisis that completely rewrites the outlook is unlikely now, European Central Bank chief economist Philip Lane said. "We always run scenarios about... what happens when we get accelerator effects or things amplify each other. But that's pretty much a tail scenario at this point in time," Lane told a conference on Wednesday. (Reporting by Balazs Koranyi Editing by Francesco Canepa)
