Article summary

In response to the coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic, the Governing Council of the European Central Bank (ECB) has decided to set up a new Eurosystem repo facility for central banks (EUREP). This is intended to provide euro liquidity to non-euro area central banks (against adequate collateral) and address euro liquidity needs outside the euro area. EUREP will be available until the end of June 2021.
