In March 1998 the EMI published its Convergence Report ( as required under Article 109j ( 1 ) of the Treaty ) , which contained , inter alia , an assessment of the compatibility of such national legislation with the Treaty and the Statute of the ESCB .

In its Convergence Report the EMI noted that all Member States except Denmark , the legislation of which did not require adaptation , had introduced , or were in an advanced stage of introducing , changes in the statutes of their NCBs , following the criteria laid down in the EMI 's previous reports on this subject and in the EMI 's Opinions in consultation procedures ( see Chapter III , Section 6 , and Table 13 below ) .

9.2 Preparatory work for Stage Three of EMU Article 4.2 of the EMI Statute required the EMI to specify the regulatory , organisational and logistical framework necessary for the ESCB to perform its tasks in Stage Three of EMU .

In this context , the ECB applied the entire set of legal acts which it is empowered to use under Articles 14.3 and 34 of the Statute of the ESCB .

Furthermore , in view of , inter alia , the decentralised execution of ESCB tasks pursuant to Article 12.1 , third paragraph , of the Statute of the ESCB , the ECB adopted a wide range of Guidelines and some Instructions under Article 14.3 of the Statute of the ESCB .

This resulted , for example , in legal documentation relating to TARGET and to the correspondent central banking model ( CCBM ) , which enables NCBs to accept collateral on a cross-border basis .

In February and March 1998 the EMI Council discussed issues concerning the implementation of Article 109l ( 4 ) of the Treaty , which deals with the fixing of the irrevocable conversion rates of participating national currencies vis-à-vis the euro .

The EMI Council agreed finally that the irrevocable conversion rates should be fixed on 31 December 1998 and that , contrary to alternative proposals , markets should not be closed by national authorities on that day , with the exception of stock exchange markets and countries in which 31 December is a bank holiday . The reasons for this decision were the following : compliance with the letter of the Treaty ;

Given the risk of technical failures with reference to the particularly cumbersome procedures for the redenomination of securities , the counterparties of the NCBs could consider -- where this is technically possible -- whether or not they would like to pre-deposit eligible securities with the NCBs before the end of the year , in order to create a buffer of collateral which could be used on 4 January 1999 in the event of an emergency ." the event of a breakdown of the core infrastructure were discussed and prepared .

1 Immediately after their adoption by the EU Council , the ECB and the euro area NCBs helped to disseminate this information to the banking community via a wide range of information services such as Reuters and Telerate , as well as via the Internet and S.W.I.F.T. On 3 January 1999 the ECB announced in a press release that « in the monitoring of conversion activities conducted by the ESCB during the changeover weekend no incidents have been reported that may impair the smooth start of the system . The ESCB considers this to be a sign of the quality of the preparatory work conducted over recent months and years by the central banking community and by private financial market operators » .

At the same time , the Governing Council decided to create an ad hoc Changeover Weekend Committee to act as a consultative body on changeover issues for the Eurosystem . This Committee identified a number of financial institutions ( national central securities depositories , payment and securities settlement systems , stock exchanges , financial data providers and global custodians ) as forming part of the core infrastructure which should report either to the ECB or to the NCBs on their plans for the changeover and on details of any incidents or unforeseen developments .
