            DECISION (EU) 2025/874 OF THE EUROPEAN CENTRAL BANK
         
of 24 April 2025
         
amending Decision (EU) 2022/1982 on the use of services of the European System of Central Banks by competent authorities and by cooperating authorities (ECB/2022/34) (ECB/2025/14)



THE GOVERNING COUNCIL OF THE EUROPEAN CENTRAL BANK,

Having regard to the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union, and in particular Article 127 and Article 132(1) thereof,


Having regard to the Statute of the European System of Central Banks and of the European Central Bank, and in particular Article 12.1 in conjunction with Articles 3.1 and 12.3, and Article 34 thereof,

Whereas:







(1)


Pursuant to Decision (EU) 2022/1982 of the European Central Bank (ECB/2022/34) (1), competent authorities may use services of the European System of Central Banks (ESCB) for the purpose of cooperating with the ESCB and with each other in order to carry out their tasks within the Single Supervisory Mechanism (SSM), established pursuant to Council Regulation (EU) No 1024/2013 (2).












(2)


ESCB services are provided to ESCB central banks to support the performance of their tasks. Statistical ESCB services are developed, run and maintained by one or more ESCB central banks and steered by the ESCB’s Statistics Committee.












(3)


The Banks’ Integrated Reporting Dictionary Operational Tasks Project (BIRD OT) is a statistical ESCB service that comprises an integrated and harmonised data model and reporting dictionary and, as such, is intended to significantly improve the quality, consistency and accuracy of data reported to central banks via statistical reporting. The use of BIRD OT would foster cooperation in the field of regulatory reporting, since all reporting agents and supervised agents using BIRD OT will apply a uniform data model and reporting dictionary. BIRD OT would therefore also benefit all competent authorities to which supervisory data reports are required to be submitted. Therefore, the list of ESCB services to be made available to competent authorities and cooperating authorities should be extended to include BIRD OT.












(4)


Therefore, Decision (EU) 2022/1982 (ECB/2022/34) should be amended accordingly,





HAS ADOPTED THIS DECISION:
