Further information: History of the euro
The European Central Bank is the de facto successor of the European Monetary Institute (EMI) The EMI was established at the start of the second stage of the EU's Economic and Monetary Union (EMU) to handle the transitional issues of states adopting the euro and prepare for the creation of the ECB and European System of Central Banks (ESCB) The EMI itself took over from the earlier European Monetary Co-operation Fund (EMCF).[1]
Trang 4Wim Duisenberg, first President of the ECB.
The ECB formally replaced the EMI on 1 June 1998 by virtue of the Treaty on European Union (TEU, Treaty of Maastricht), however it did not exercise its full powers until the introduction of the euro on 1 January 1999, signalling the third stage
of EMU The bank was the final institution needed for EMU, as outlined by the EMU reports of Pierre Werner and President Jacques Delors.[1] It was established on 1 June
1998.[2]
The first President of the Bank was Wim Duisenberg, the former president of
the Dutch central bankand the European Monetary Institute While Duisenberg had been the head of the EMI (taking over from Alexandre Lamfalussy of Belgium) just before the ECB came into existence, the French government wanted Jean-Claude Trichet, former head of French central bank, to be the ECB's first president The French argued that since the ECB was to be located in Germany, its President should
be French This was opposed by the German, Dutch and Belgian governments who saw Duisenberg as a guarantor of a strong euro.[3] Tensions were abated by a
gentleman's agreement in which Duisenberg would stand down before the end of his mandate, to be replaced by Trichet, an event which occurred in November 2003 There had also been tension over the ECB's Executive Board, with the United
Kingdom demanding a seat even though it had not joined the Single Currency
[3] Under pressure from France three seats were assigned to the largest
members, France, Germany, Italy and Spain Despite such a system of appointment the board asserted its independence early on in resisting calls for interest rates and future candidates to it.[3]
When the ECB was created, it covered a Eurozone of eleven members Since
then, Greece joined in January 2001, Slovenia in January 2007, Cyprus and Malta in
Trang 5January 2008, Slovakia in January 2009, and Estonia in January 2011, enlarging the bank's scope and the membership of its Governing Council.[1]
On December 1, 2009 Treaty of Lisbon entered into force, ECB according to the article 13 of TEU, gained official status of an EU institution
[ edit ]Powers and objectives
The ECB has the exclusive right to authorise issuance of banknotes
The primary objective of the ECB is to maintain price stability within the Eurozone,
or in other words to keep inflation low The Governing Council defined price stability
as inflation (Harmonised Index of Consumer Prices) of below, but close to, 2% [4] Unlike for example the United States Federal Reserve Bank, the ECB has only one primary objective with other objectives subordinate to it
The key tasks of the ECB are to define and implement the monetary policy for the Eurozone, to conduct foreign exchange operations, to take care of theforeign
reserves of the European System of Central Banks and promote smooth operation of the financial market infrastructure under the Target payments system[5] and being currently developed technical platform for settlement of securities in Europe
(TARGET2 Securities) Furthermore, it has the exclusive right to authorise the issuance of euro banknotes Member states can issue euro coins but the amount must
be authorised by the ECB beforehand (upon the introduction of the euro, the ECB also had exclusive right to issue coins[5])
In U.S style central banking, liquidity is furnished to the economy primarily through the purchase of Treasury bonds by the Federal Reserve Bank Because the European Community does not have system-wide bonds backed by a system-wide taxation authority, it uses a different method Member banks, of which there are several thousand, bid for short term repo contracts of two weeks' to three months' duration The member banks in effect borrow cash and must pay it back; the short durations
Trang 6allow interest rates to be adjusted continually When the repo notes come due the participating banks bid again An increase in the quantity of notes offered at auction allows an increase in liquidity in the economy A decrease has the contrary effect The contracts are carried on the asset side of the European Central Bank's balance sheet and the resulting deposits in member banks are carried as a liability In lay terms, the liability of the central bank is money, and an increase in deposits in member banks, carried as a liability by the central bank, means that more money has been put into the economy.[6]
To qualify for participation in the auctions banks must be able to offer proof of appropriate collateral in the form of loans to other entities These can be the public debt of member states, but a fairly wide range of private banking securities are also accepted.[7] The fairly stringent membership requirements for the European Union, especially with regard to sovereign debt as a percentage of each member state's Gross Domestic Product, are designed to insure that assets offered to the bank as collateral are, at least in theory, all equally good, and all equally protected from the risk of inflation The economic and financial crisis that began in 2008 has revealed some relative weaknesses in the sovereign debt of such member countries as Greece,
Portugal, Ireland and Spain.[8] These securities are not limited to the countries of issue, but held in many cases by banks in other member states To the extent that the banks authorized to borrow from the ECB have compromised collateral, their ability to borrow from the ECB—and thus the liquidity of the economic system—is impaired This threat has drawn the ECB into rescue operations But weak sovereign debt is not the only source of weakness in the ECB's operations, as the collapse of the market in U.S dollar denominated collateralized debt obligations has also led to large scale interventions in cooperation with the Federal Reserve
Rescue operations involving sovereign debt have included temporarily moving bad or weak assets off the balance sheets of the weak member banks into the balance sheets
of the European Central Bank Such action is viewed as monetization and can be seen
as an inflationary threat, whereby the strong member countries of the ECB shoulder the burden of monetary expansion (and potential inflation) in order to save the weak member countries Most central banks prefer to move weak assets off their balance sheets with some kind of agreement as to how the debt will continue to be serviced This preference has typically led the ECB to argue that the weaker member countries must (a) allocate considerable national income to servicing debts and (b) scale back a wide range of national expenditures (such as education, infrastructure,
and welfare transfer payments) in order to make their payments
Trang 7The European Central Bank had stepped up the buying of member nations debt.[9] In response to the crisis of 2010, some proposals have surfaced for a collective European bond issue that would allow the central bank to purchase a European version of U.S Treasury Bills.[10] To make European sovereign debt assets more similar to a U.S Treasury, a collective guarantee of the member states' solvency would be necessary [11] But the German government has resisted this proposal, and other analyses indicate that "the sickness of the Euro" is due to the linkage between sovereign debt and failing national banking systems If the European central bank were to deal directly with failing banking systems sovereign debt would not look as leveraged relative to national income in the financially weaker member states.[12]
On December 17, 2010 the ECB announced that it was going to double its
capitalization.[13] (The ECB's most recent balance sheet before the announcement listed capital and reserves at 2.03 trillion euros.)[14] The sixteen central banks of the member states would transfer assets to the ledger of the ECB In banking, assets (loans) are used to offset liabilities (deposits and currency) If some of the sovereign debt held as an asset by the ECB becomes non-performing, the asset is "bad" and the deposits, in this case, currency, are not appropriately backed This inequality means that liabilities exceed assets and therefore the bank is in trouble One response is to use the bank's capital to offset the losses The use of capital to offset a loss transfers the loss to the bank's shareholders: the member banks The increased capitalization of the ECB against potential sovereign debt default means that the sixteen member banks are also exposed to potential losses In 2011 the European member states may need to raise as much as USD $2 trillion in debt Some of this will be new debt and some will
be previous debt that is "rolled over" as older loans reach maturity In either case, the ability to raise this money depends on the confidence of investors in the European financial system The ability of the European Union to guarantee its members'
sovereign debt obligations have direct implications for the core assets of the banking system that support the Euro.[15] Although "unthinkable," a collapse of the euro (with a reversion to individual national currencies) became, at the end of 2010, a topic of speculation in the financial press.[16]
The bank must also co-operate within the EU and internationally with third bodies and entities Finally it contributes to maintaining a stable financial system and
monitoring the banking sector.[17] The latter can be seen, for example, in the bank's intervention during the 2007 credit crisis when it loaned billions of euros to banks to stabilise the financial system.[18] In December 2007 the ECB decided in conjunction with the Federal Reserve under a program called Term auction facility to improve dollar liquidity in the eurozone and to stabilise the money market.[19]
Trang 8[ edit ]Organisation
Although the ECB is governed by European law directly and thus not by corporate law applying to private law companies, its set-up resembles that of a corporation in the sense that the ECB has shareholders and stock capital Its capital is five billion euros[20] which is held by the national central banks of the Member States as
shareholders The initial capital allocation key was determined in 1998 on the basis of the states' population and GDP,[21] but the key is adjustable.[22] Shares in the ECB are not transferable and cannot be used as collateral.[23]

The Executive Board is responsible for the implementation of monetary policy
defined by the Governing Council and the day-to-day running of the bank In this it can issue decisions to national central banks and may also exercise powers delegated
to it by the Governing Council It is composed of the President of the Bank
(currently Jean-Claude Trichet), a vice president and four other members They are all appointed by common accord of the Eurozone member states for non-renewable terms
of eight years
Trang 9Jean-Claude Trichet, the current President.
The General Council is a body dealing with transitional issues of euro adoption, for example fixing the exchange rates of currencies being replaced by the euro
(continuing the tasks of the former EMI) It will continue to exist until all EU Member States adopt the euro, at which point it will be dissolved It is composed of the
President and Vice President together with the governors of all of the EU's national central banks.[24][25]
[ edit ]Independence and future
Furthermore, not only must the bank not seek influence, but EU institutions and national governments are bound by the treaties to respect the ECB's independence For example, the minimum term of office for an national central bank governor is five years and members of the executive board have a non-renewable eight-year term [26] To offer some accountability, the ECB is bound to publish reports on its activities and has to address its annual report to the European Parliament, the European
Commission, the Council of the European Union and the European Council.[27] The European Parliament also gets to question and then issue its opinion on candidates to the executive board.[28]
The bank's independence has notably come under intense criticism since the election
of Nicolas Sarkozy as French President Sarkozy has sought to make the ECB more susceptible to political influence, to extend its mandate to focus on growth and job creation, and has frequently criticised the bank's policies on interest rates

Trang 10Model of the ECB's new headquarters.
The bank is based in Frankfurt, the largest financial centre in the Eurozone Its
location in the city is fixed by the Amsterdam Treaty along with other major
institutions.[29]In the city, the bank currently occupies Frankfurt's Eurotower until its purpose-built headquarters are built.[30]
In 1999 an international architectural competition was launched by the bank to design
a new building It was won by a Vienna-based architectural office named Coop Himmelbau The building will be approximately 180 metres (591 ft) tall (the present building is 148 m/486 ft) and will be accompanied with other secondary buildings on
a landscaped site on the site of the former wholesale market (Großmarkthalle) in the eastern part of Frankfurt am Main The main construction began in October 2008, with completion scheduled during 2014.[31][32] It is expected that the building will become an architectural symbol for Europe and is designed to cope with double the number of staff who operate in the Eurotower.[30]
