    om ændring af afgørelse ECB/2022/911 om de nærmere vilkår for TARGET-ECB (ECB/2022/22) (ECB/2023/27)

    DIREKTIONEN FOR DEN EUROPÆISKE CENTRALBANK HAR —

    under henvisning til traktaten om Den Europæiske Unions funktionsmåde, særlig artikel 127, stk. 2, første og fjerde led,

    under henvisning til statutten for Det Europæiske System af Centralbanker og Den Europæiske Centralbank, særlig artikel 3.1, og artikel 17, 22 og 23, og

    ud fra følgende betragtninger:

    (1)

    Styrelsesrådet vedtog den 24. februar 2022 Den Europæiske Centralbanks retningslinje (EU) 2022/912 (ECB/2022/8) (1), som omhandler opstarten af en ny generation af TARGET (Trans-European Automated Real-time Gross settlement Express Transfer system).

    (2)

    Styrelsesrådet vedtog den 7. september 2023 Den Europæiske Centralbanks retningslinje (EU) 2023/2415 (ECB/2023/22) (2), som ændrer retningslinje (EU) 2022/912 (ECB/2022/8). Formålet med ændringerne var at: a) præcisere visse aspekter vedrørende brugen af varemærker i forbindelse med TARGET-tjenester, b) yderligere præcisere kravet om, at centralbankerne i Eurosystemet skal sikre, at ingen andre konti end TARGET-konti åbnes for deltagere, som er godkendt til at deltage i TARGET med henblik på levering af tjenesteydelser, som er omfattet af den pågældende retningslinjes anvendelsesområde, c) indføre foranstaltninger til afbødning i tilfælde af fejl i forbindelsen til TARGET hos en centralbank i Eurosystemet, d) fastsætte den obligatoriske anvendelse af nødløsningen fra 21. marts 2025 for alle indehavere af særlige kontantkonti med henblik på bruttoafvikling i realtid og afviklingssystemer, der deltager i TARGET, e) indføre præciseringer vedrørende de tilgængelige enheder, som er udpeget af de afviklingssystemer, som anvender TARGET Instant Payment Settlement (TIPS), f) indføre den reviderede prisfastsættelsespolitik for TIPS og g) indføre visse redaktionelle ændringer.

    (3)

    Ændringer af retningslinje (EU) 2022/912 (ECB/2022/8), som påvirker de nærmere vilkår for TARGET-ECB bør afspejles i Den Europæiske Centralbanks afgørelse ECB/2022/911 (ECB/2022/22) (3).

    (4)

    For at sikre overensstemmelse med bestemmelserne i retningslinje (EU) 2023/2415 (ECB/2023/22) bør denne afgørelse træde i kraft 20. november 2023.
