         RECOMMENDATION OF THE EUROPEAN CENTRAL BANK
   of 14 July 2016
   to the Council of the European Union on the external auditors of Eesti Pank
   (ECB/2016/20)
   (2016/C 266/01)
   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 27.1 thereof,
   Whereas:
   
               (1)
            
            
               The accounts of the European Central Bank (ECB) and the national central banks of the Member States whose currency is the euro are audited by independent external auditors recommended by the ECB’s Governing Council and approved by the Council of the European Union.
            
         
               (2)
            
            
               The mandate of Eesti Pank’s current external auditors, AS Deloitte Audit Eesti, ended following the audit for the financial year 2015. It is therefore necessary to appoint external auditors from the financial year 2016.
            
         
               (3)
            
            
               Eesti Pank has selected KPMG Baltics OÜ as its external auditors for the financial years 2016 to 2020,
