The ECB published data on its annual average “net financial assets” (NFA) and the national central banks (NCBs) of the Eurosystem, as defined in the Agreement on Net Financial Assets (ANFA).
In addition, the Governing Council has decided to publish monthly breakdowns showing how ECB and NCB balance sheets contribute to the statistics on the aggregated balance sheet of monetary financial institutions (a disaggregated Eurosystem statistical balance sheet) and to the consolidated financial statement of the Eurosystem. These data publications further strengthen the Eurosystem’s accountability and transparency.
The new datasets allow for easy access to information on the individual Eurosystem central banks’ assets and liabilities. They provide information in a harmonised manner about the decentralised implementation of the single monetary policy of the ECB, as well as about non-monetary policy financial activities of the Eurosystem central banks.
The 2015 annual average NFA of each Eurosystem central bank have been published today on the ECB website. In the future, NFA annual data will be published during the first quarter of each year. The monthly contributions to statistics on the aggregated monetary financial institutions balance sheet have also been published today in the Statistical Data Warehouse SDW. The first monthly publication of the ECB and NCB contributions to the consolidated financial statement of the Eurosystem will take place on 2 August 2016 on the ECB website.
