Definitions

Article 1

For the purposes of this Decision, the definitions in Article 2 of Regulation (EU) 2021/378 (ECB/2021/1) apply.

Transitional provisions for institutions located in Croatia

Article 2

1. In derogation from Article 8 of Regulation (EU) 2021/378 (ECB/2021/1), a transitional maintenance period shall run from 1 January 2023 to 7 February 2023 for institutions located in Croatia. 2. The reserve base of each institution located in Croatia for the transitional maintenance period shall be defined in relation to its balance sheet at 31 October 2022. Hrvatska narodna banka shall request institutions located in Croatia to report to it their reserve base in accordance with Regulation (EU) 2021/379 (ECB/2021/2). Hrvatska narodna banka shall request institutions located in Croatia that benefit from the derogation under Article 9(1) or (2) or Article 9(5), point (a), of Regulation (EU) 2021/379 (ECB/2021/2) to calculate the reserve base for the transitional maintenance period on the basis of their balance sheets at 30 September 2022. 3. In respect of the transitional maintenance period, either an institution located in Croatia or Hrvatska narodna banka shall calculate such institution’s minimum reserves. The party that calculates the minimum reserves shall submit its calculation to the other party allowing sufficient time for the latter to verify it and submit revisions. The calculated minimum reserves, including any revisions thereof, shall be confirmed by the two parties at the latest on 20 December 2022. If the notified party does not confirm the amount of minimum reserves by 20 December 2022, it shall be deemed to have acknowledged that the calculated amount applies for the transitional maintenance period. 4. Article 3(2) to (4) of this Decision shall apply mutatis mutandis to institutions located in Croatia so that these institutions may, for their initial maintenance periods, deduct from their reserve bases any liabilities owed to institutions in Croatia, although at the time the minimum reserves are calculated such institutions will not appear on the list of institutions subject to minimum reserve requirements referred to in Article 3(3) of Regulation (EU) 2021/378 (ECB/2021/1).

Transitional provisions for institutions located in other Member States whose currency is the euro

Article 3

1. The maintenance period applicable to institutions located in other Member States whose currency is the euro pursuant to Article 8 of Regulation (EU) 2021/378 (ECB/2021/1) shall remain unaffected by the transitional maintenance period for institutions located in Croatia. 2. Institutions located in other Member States whose currency is the euro may decide to deduct from their reserve base for the maintenance periods from 21 December 2022 to 7 February 2023 and from 8 February to 21 March 2023 any liabilities owed to institutions located in Croatia, although at the time the minimum reserves are calculated such institutions will not appear on the list of institutions subject to minimum reserve requirements referred to in Article 3(3) of Regulation (EU) 2021/378 (ECB/2021/1). 3. Institutions located in other Member States whose currency is the euro that decide to deduct liabilities owed to institutions located in Croatia pursuant to paragraph 2 shall, for the maintenance periods from 21 December 2022 to 7 February 2023 and from 8 February to 21 March 2023, calculate their minimum reserves on the basis of their balance sheets at 31 October 2022 and 31 December 2022 respectively and report statistical information in accordance with Part 1 of Annex III to Regulation (EU) 2021/379 (ECB/2021/2) showing institutions located in Croatia as already subject to the ECB’s minimum reserve system. This shall be without prejudice to the obligation for institutions to report statistical information for the periods concerned in accordance with Table 1 in Part 2 of Annex I to Regulation (EU) 2021/379 (ECB/2021/2), still showing institutions located in Croatia as being banks located in the ‘Rest of the world’. The tables shall be reported in accordance with the time limits and procedures laid down in Regulation (EU) 2021/379 (ECB/2021/2). 4. For the maintenance periods starting in December 2022 and February 2023, institutions located in other Member States whose currency is the euro that benefit from the derogation under Article 9(1) or (2) or Article 9(5), point (a), of Regulation (EU) 2021/379 (ECB/2021/2) and decide to deduct liabilities owed to institutions located in Croatia pursuant to paragraph 2 shall calculate their minimum reserves on the basis of their balance sheet at 30 September 2022 and report statistical information in accordance with Part 1 of Annex III to Regulation (EU) 2021/379 (ECB/2021/2) showing institutions located in Croatia as already subject to the ECB’s minimum reserve system. For the maintenance periods starting in March and May 2023, institutions located in other Member States whose currency is the euro that benefit from the derogation under Article 9(1) or (2) or Article 9(5), point (a), of Regulation (EU) 2021/379 (ECB/2021/2) and decide to deduct liabilities owed to institutions located in Croatia pursuant to paragraph 2 shall calculate their minimum reserves on the basis of their balance sheet at 31 December 2022, and report statistical information in accordance with Part 1 of Annex III to Regulation (EU) 2021/379 (ECB/2021/2) showing institutions located in Croatia as already subject to the ECB’s minimum reserve system. This shall be without prejudice to the obligation for institutions to report statistical information for the periods concerned in accordance with Table 1 in Part 2 of Annex I to Regulation (EU) 2021/379 (ECB/2021/2) still showing institutions located in Croatia as being banks located in the ‘Rest of the world’.
