Statement from the 20th meeting of the Bank Board of Národná banka Slovenska

The 20th meeting of the Bank Board of Národná banka Slovenska was held today (30 July 2013) and was chaired by Jozef Makúch, the NBS Governor.

The Bank Board took note of the NBS Monthly Bulletin for July 2013, which will be published on the NBS website.

The Bank Board decided that a €10 silver collector coin commemorating the 300th anniversary of the birth of the musician Edmund Pascha will be removed from the 2014 issue plan for Slovak commemorative and collector coins.

The decision was taken after experts at the Slovak Academy of Sciences (from the Institute of Musicology and Ján Stanislav Institute of Slavistics) disclosed new information indicating that significant Baroque compositions credited to Edmund Pascha were not written by him.

The Bank Board approved the document entitled: “Draft Memoranda of Understanding with competent supervisory authorities of non-EU countries in accordance with Directive 2011/61/EU of the European Parliament and of the Council”.
