Update of the assessment of securities settlement systems in the euro area
In the context of Slovenia’s entry to the European Monetary Union as of 1 January 2007 the Governing Council of the ECB has assessed the Slovenian securities settlement system (SSS) operated by the Central Securities Clearing Corporation (Centralna klirinško depotna družba – KDD) against the “Standards for the use of EU securities settlement systems in Eurosystem credit operations” (http://www.ecb.europa.eu/press/pr/date/2006/html/pr061020_1.en.html).
From 1 January 2007 the system will be fully compliant with the Eurosystem User standards. Consequently, the list of eligible SSSs for Eurosystem credit operations has been updated with the inclusion of the KDD in Slovenia as of 1 January 2007. This means that KDD may be used by counterparties of the Eurosystem for credit operations to settle their collateral on a real-time free of payment (FOP) basis during the operating hours of the TARGET system.
The eligible SSSs and their settlement procedures are set out in the table below, which replaces the list published in a press release on 20 October 2006.
