         THE GOVERNING COUNCIL OF THE EUROPEAN CENTRAL BANK,
         Having regard to the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union,
         Having regard to the Statute of the European System of Central Banks and of the European Central Bank and in particular Article 29.3 and 29.4 thereof,
         Having regard to the contribution of the General Council of the European Central Bank in accordance with the fourth indent of Article 46.2 of the Statute of the European System of Central Banks and of the European Central Bank,
         Whereas:
         
                     (1)
                  
                  
                     Article 29.3 of the Statute of the European System of Central Banks and of the European Central Bank (hereinafter the ‘Statute of the ESCB’) requires the capital key weightings to be adjusted every five years after the establishment of the European System of Central Banks (ESCB) by analogy with the provisions laid down in Article 29.1 of the Statute of the ESCB. The adjusted capital key applies with effect from the first day of the year following the year in which the adjustment occurs.
                  
               
                     (2)
                  
                  
                     The last adjustment of the capital key weightings in accordance with Article 29.3 of the Statute of the ESCB was made in 2013 with effect from 1 January 2014 (1).
                  
               
                     (3)
                  
                  
                     In accordance with Council Decision 2003/517/EC (2), the European Commission provided the European Central Bank (ECB) with the statistical data to be used in determining the adjusted capital key,
                  
               HAS ADOPTED THIS DECISION:
         
            Article 1
            Rounding
            Where the European Commission provides revised statistical data to be used in adjusting the capital key and the figures do not total 100 %, the difference shall be compensated for: (i) if the total is below 100 %, by adding 0,0001 of a percentage point to the smallest share(s) in ascending order until exactly 100 % is reached, or (ii) if the total is above 100 %, by subtracting 0,0001 of a percentage point in descending order from the largest share(s) until exactly 100 % is reached.
