Advisory groups on market infrastructures

Two advisory groups on market infrastructures have been set up to counsel the Eurosystem on issues related to (i) payments (AMI-Pay) and (ii) securities and collateral (AMI-SeCo). Both groups are composed of market participants and are chaired by the ECB.

AMI-Pay

The Advisory Group on Market Infrastructures for Payments (AMI-Pay) is a forum for the exchange of views on developments in payments. The group assists the Eurosystem in fostering payment innovation and integration across Europe, and offers advice on the provision and modification of Eurosystem payment-related services. It is composed of representatives of banks active in the European Union and of national central banks.
