The TARGET Services Connectivity Guide describes in general terms the connectivity to the Eurosystem Single Market Infrastructure Gateway (ESMIG). The ESMIG provides a single access point for directly connected actors to access TARGET Services. Access to the ESMIG is provided by the two Network Service Providers (NSP) selected by the Eurosystem, which are Nexi-Colt and SWIFT.
The connectivity guide is applicable for T2S, T2 and TIPS and is valid for both production and test environments.
Please keep in mind that this connectivity guide only is not sufficient to achieve the connectivity to ESMIG. All NSPs specific steps and technical details to achieve the connectivity to TARGET Services are described in the relevant NSP related documentation.
