RECOMMENDATION OF THE EUROPEAN CENTRAL BANK

of 31 May 2007

amending Recommendation ECB/2004/16 on the statistical reporting requirements of the European Central Bank in the field of balance of payments and international investment position statistics, and the international reserves template

(ECB/2007/4)

(2007/C 136/02)

THE GOVERNING COUNCIL OF THE EUROPEAN CENTRAL BANK,

Having regard to the Statute of the European System of Central Banks and of the European Central Bank, and in particular Article 5.1 thereof,

Whereas:

| (1) | The first sentence of Article 5.1 of the Statute requires the European Central Bank (ECB), assisted by the national central banks (NCBs), to collect either from the competent authorities other than NCBs or directly from economic agents the statistical information necessary in order for it to undertake the tasks of the European System of Central Banks (ESCB). The second sentence of Article 5.1 of the Statute provides that for these purposes the ECB must cooperate with the Community institutions or bodies and with the competent authorities of the Member States or third countries and with international organisations. |

The second sentence of Article 5.1 of the Statute provides that for these purposes the ECB must cooperate with the Community institutions or bodies and with the competent authorities of the Member States or third countries and with international organisations.

| (2) | Information that is necessary to meet the ECB's requirements in the field of balance of payments and international investment position statistics may be collected and/or compiled by competent authorities other than NCBs. Therefore, some of the tasks to be undertaken to meet these requirements require cooperation between the ECB or the NCBs and such competent authorities, in line with Article 5.1 of the Statute. Article 4 of Council Regulation (EC) No 2533/98 of 23 November 1998 concerning the collection of statistical information by the European Central Bank (1) requires the Member States to organise themselves in the field of statistics and to cooperate fully with the ESCB in order to ensure the fulfilment of the obligations arising out of Article 5 of the Statute. |

(2)

Information that is necessary to meet the ECB's requirements in the field of balance of payments and international investment position statistics may be collected and/or compiled by competent authorities other than NCBs. Therefore, some of the tasks to be undertaken to meet these requirements require cooperation between the ECB or the NCBs and such competent authorities, in line with Article 5.1 of the Statute. Article 4 of Council Regulation (EC) No 2533/98 of 23 November 1998 concerning the collection of statistical information by the European Central Bank (1) requires the Member States to organise themselves in the field of statistics and to cooperate fully with the ESCB in order to ensure the fulfilment of the obligations arising out of Article 5 of the Statute.

| (3) | When further Member States adopt the euro, it will be necessary to compile back data for the euro area aggregate in its new composition on balance of payments (including the seasonally adjusted current account) and international investment position statistics. Certain amendments to Recommendation ECB/2004/16 of 16 July 2004 on the statistical reporting requirements of the European Central Bank in the field of balance of payments and international investment position statistics (2) are therefore required to cater for future enlargements of the euro area in respect of the provision of back data. The period for which such back data must be provided may be reassessed by 2010. In the case of Ireland and Italy, such data would have to be reported by the addressees of this Recommendation, |
