Konw About: ECB (European Central Bank)

European Central Bank (ECB)

The European Central Bank (ECB) is one of the world's most important central banks, responsible for monetary policy covering the 13 member countries of the Eurozone. It was established by the European Union (EU) in 1998 with its headquarters in Frankfurt, Germany.
The predecessor to the ECB was the European Monetary Institute (EMI). It was established at the start of the second stage of the EU's Economic and Monetary Union (EMU) to handle the transitional issues of states adopting the euro and prepare for the creation of the ECB and European System of Central Banks (ESCB). The EMI itself took over from the earlier European Monetary Co-operation Fund (EMCF).[1]
