Cooperation among central banks has involved twinning projects - led by some Eurosystem National Central Banks in particular Banque de France, Banca d’Italia and De Nederlandsche Bank - with the Bulgarian National Bank and the National Bank of Romania, as well as visits and training, all geared towards sharing information and know-how.
It has taken place in a large number of areas, such as payment systems, supervision and financial stability, statistics, central bank operations, etc. Looking ahead, such technical assistance will continue to intensify as countries progress towards aligning themselves with EU regulations and directives.
