Die Deutsche Bundesbank und die Finanzaufsicht BaFin stoßen gemeinsam den Abbau von Bürokratie an: Die beiden Institutionen haben vorgeschlagen, das Millionenkreditmeldewesen für Banken und Versicherer zum 30.

One of the Bundesbank's tasks is to collect monetary, financial and external sector statistical data, comprehensive sets of indicators and seasonally adjusted business statistics. For macroeconomic analysis relevant data are then fed into the macroeconomic time series published in the time series databases.

There are various documents available describing the structure and functioning of T2. There are for example the Information Guide for TARGET participants, the User Requirements Document, the User Detailed Functional Specifications, the User Handbooks or our Starting Guide which shall ease the first steps for new participants. These documents and even more can be found in this area.
