Pursuant to Article 29.1 of the Statute of the ESCB, each central bank which is a member of the European System of Central Banks is assigned a weighting in the key for subscription to the ECB’s capital, as laid down by Decision ECB/2008/23 of 12 December 2008 on the national central banks’ percentage shares in the key for subscription to the European Central Bank’s capital (3); this weighting is based on the population and gross domestic product of each Member State and governs the contributions to the ECB’s capital, the transfers of the NCBs’ foreign reserve assets to the ECB, the monetary income allocation of the NCBs, and the distribution of profits and shar ...[+++]ing of losses of the ECB.

Decision ECB/2008/23 of 12 December 2008 on the national central banks’ percentage shares in the key for subscription to the European Central Bank’s capital (2) lays down the key for subscription to the ECB’s capital in accordance with Article 29.3 of the Statute of the ESCB and establishes with effect from 1 January 2009 the weightings assigned to each national central bank in the capital key (hereinafter the ‘capital key weightings’).

Decision ECB/2008/23 of 12 December 2008 on the national central banks’ percentage shares in the key for subscription to the European Central Bank’s capital (3) lays down the key for subscription to the ECB’s capital in accordance with Article 29.3 of the Statute of the ESCB and establishes with effect from 1 January 2009 the weightings assigned to each NCB in the capital key (hereinafter the ‘capital key weightings’).

The subscription key laid down to determine the shares of ECB capital accounted for by the individual NCBs entails other consequences: it specifies what each euro system NCB should contribute to the pool of external reserves (Article 30.2 of the Statute), how the votes of the members of the ECB Governing Council should be weighted when decisions have to be taken by weighted votes (in the cases listed in Article 10.3 of the Statute), and how ESCB monetary income is to be divided among euro system NCBs (Article 32.5 of the Statute: the income is allocated in proportion to the banks’ paid-up shares in the ECB capital).

As far as the five-yearly adjustment is concerned, the key will be updated on the basis of the figures available, in the case of population, in the last year but one before the key is adjusted (rule of updating to the antepenultimate year) and, in the case of GDP, in the five years preceding the last year but one before the key is adjusted (year before the antepenultimate year).
