The euro nose-dived against its major counterparts in the early European session on Monday, as German private sector activity shrank to the lowest level since October 2012.

Survey data from IHS Markit showed Germany's flash composite PMI declined to 49.1 from 51.7 in August. It was the first reading below the 50 'no change' threshold since April 2013. The rate of decline signaled was the steepest in almost seven years.

The services PMI came in at a 9-month low of 52.5 versus 54.8 a month ago. The factory PMI plunged to a 123-month low of 41.4 compared to 43.5 in August.

In Eurozone, the flash composite output index fell unexpectedly to a 75-month low of 50.4 in September from 51.9 in August.

Economists had forecast the score to rise slightly to 52.0. The reading signaled the weakest growth across manufacturing and services since June 2013.

European Central Bank President Mario Draghi will testify about the economy and monetary policy before the European Parliament later in the day. Draghi's speech is likely to offer more insights on his plan for the bloc's monetary policy path.

The currency held steady against its major counterparts in the previous session, excepting the pound.

The euro declined to near a 2-week low of 1.0966 against the greenback, from a high of 1.1026 seen at 2:00 am ET. The euro is seen finding support around the 1.08 region.

The euro that closed Friday's trading at 1.0919 against the franc depreciated to near a 2-week low of 1.0857. The currency may challenge support around the 1.06 region, if it drops again.
