The European Central Bank (ECB) is the prime component of the Eurosystem and the European System of Central Banks (ESCB) as well as one of seven institutions of the European Union. It is one of the world’s most important central banks established by the treaty of Amsterdam in May 1999, with the purpose of guaranteeing and maintaining price stability. On 1st December 2009, the Treaty of Lisbon became effective and the bank gained the official status of an EU institution.
Today, it remains committed in ensuring price stability and the safety and soundness of the European banking system.
The Governing Council, the simulated committee in Europa. S, holds as its main responsibility to adopt the guidelines and take the decisions necessary to ensure the performance of the tasks entrusted to the ECB and the Eurosystem, as well as formulate monetary policy for the euro area. It meets twice a month at the ECB’s premises in Frankfurt au Main, in Germany, accessing economic and monetary developments and taking monetary policy decisions.
ECB’s unique structure, as well as its great variety of topics extended on monetary, economic, and banking affairs makes it an exciting choice for participants seeking to combine both excitement and academic quality while participating in such a demanding and fascinating committee.
