On 15 October 2013 the Council adopted Regulation (EU) No 1024/2013, conferring specific tasks on the European Central Bank (ECB) concerning policies relating to the prudential supervision of credit institutions. |

The Supervisory Board is an essential body in the exercise of supervisory tasks performed by the ECB within the Single Supervisory Mechanism. Regulation (EU) No 1024/2013 therefore conferred upon the Council the power to appoint the Chair and the Vice-Chair of the Supervisory Board. |

The ECB submitted such a proposal on 18 December 2020, and the European Parliament approved it on 8 February 2021, |
