Publication of an indicative calendar for the Eurosystem’s tender operations in 2009

The European Central Bank is today publishing an indicative calendar for the Eurosystem’s tender operations in 2009 (see the attached document).

The indicative calendar has been prepared in line with the procedures set out in “The implementation of monetary policy in the euro area: General documentation on Eurosystem monetary policy instruments and procedures”. It should be noted that the tender calendar includes only regular operations and contains no details of any ad hoc operations that may be carried out in 2009.
