Decisions taken by the Governing Council of the ECB (in addition to decisions setting interest rates)

February 2005

Operational issues

Eurosystem collateral framework (single list): issues relating to bank loans

Further to an earlier decision to include bank loans in the future single list of eligible collateral for Eurosystem credit operations (see the ECB’s press release of 5 August 2004), the Governing Council decided that, as from 1 January 2012, a unified regime would be in place for the use of bank loans as collateral with a single threshold of €500,000 and a common Eurosystem credit assessment framework. An intermediate regime will be put in place starting on 1 January 2007, under which a number of euro area NCBs will already opt for a threshold of at least €500,000. No limits will be applied to the use of bank loans by a counterparty. In 2010 this intermediate regime will be reviewed to prepare the transition to the unified regime in 2012.

The Governing Council approved the revised General Documentation and adopted Guideline ECB/2005/2, amending Guideline ECB/2000/7, to which the General Documentation is annexed. The General Documentation will be published in the Official Journal of the EU on 30 May 2005, when the new Guideline enters into force. For information purposes, these documents will be posted on the ECB’s website on 21 February 2005 in all official Community languages.
