Decision ECB/2008/23 of 12 December 2008 on the national central banks’ percentage shares in the key for subscription to the European Central Bank’s capital (1) laid down with effect from 1 January 2009 the weightings assigned to those national central banks (NCBs) that were members of the European System of Central Banks (ESCB) on 1 January 2009 in the key for subscription to the ECB’s capital (hereinafter the ‘capital key weightings’ and the ‘capital key’ respectively). |

This increase requires the calculation of the capital key weighting of each NCB that will be a member of the ESCB on 1 July 2013 by analogy with Article 29.1 and in compliance with Article 29.2 of the Statute of the ESCB. |

By analogy with Articles 3.5 and 6.6 of the Rules of Procedure of the General Council of the European Central Bank (3), and in view of the General Council’s contribution to this Decision, the Governor of Hrvatska narodna banka has had the opportunity to submit observations regarding this Decision prior to its adoption, |
