THE GOVERNING COUNCIL OF THE EUROPEAN CENTRAL BANK,
Having regard to the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union, and in particular the first indent of Article 127(2) thereof,
Having regard to the Statute of the European System of Central Banks and of the European Central Bank and in particular Articles 3.1 and 12.1 and Articles 17, 18 and 22 thereof,
Whereas:
(1) On 25 January 2019, the Governing Council of the European Central Bank (ECB) adopted Decision (EU) 2019/166 of the European Central Bank (ECB/2019/3) which established the Market Infrastructure Board (MIB) in its current format. Previously, the MIB had met in different dedicated formats and the TARGET2-Securities Board, originally established under Decision ECB/2012/6 which was repealed by Decision (EU) 2019/166 (ECB/2019/3), had operated as one of such dedicated formats. The MIB, in its revised format, is the governance body that supports the Governing Council in ensuring that the Eurosystem infrastructure services are maintained and further developed and that projects concerning Eurosystem infrastructure services are managed, in each case in line with the Treaty objectives of the European System of Central Banks (ESCB), the ESCB's business needs, technological advances, the legal framework applicable to Eurosystem infrastructure services and projects and regulatory and oversight requirements, and consistently with the mandate of an ESCB committee as established by the Governing Council in accordance with Article 9 of the Rules of Procedure of the European Central Bank.
(2) Article 15(1) of Guideline ECB/2012/13 sets out the criteria for a central securities depository to be eligible for access to TARGET2-Securities services, one of which requires that a central securities depository must be positively assessed by the competent authority against the European System of Central Banks/Committee of European Securities Regulators Recommendations for Securities Settlement Systems. The European System of Central Banks/Committee of European Securities Regulators Recommendations for Securities Settlement Systems have been superseded by the Principles for Financial Market Infrastructures of the Committee on Payment and Market Infrastructures and the International Organisation of Securities Commissions dated April 2012 or a set of requirements implementing those principles, which, for example, in the European Economic Area, are implemented by Regulation (EU) No 909/2014 of the European Parliament and of the Council.
(3) Therefore, Guideline ECB/2012/13 should be amended accordingly,
