The European Central Bank (ECB) is today publishing the following indicative calendars for two consecutive years, 2017 and 2018: (i) indicative calendars for the Eurosystem’s regular tender operations and (ii) indicative calendars for the Eurosystem’s reserve maintenance periods.

The indicative calendars for the Eurosystem’s regular tender operations include only main refinancing operations (MROs) and three-month longer–term refinancing operations (three-month LTROs). They do not include any supplementary or ad hoc operations which may be carried out in 2017 or 2018. The calendars can be downloaded from the ECB’s website.

The indicative calendars for the Eurosystem’s reserve maintenance periods take into account the calendars for Governing Council meetings in 2017 and 2018 as well as the calendars for regular tender operations. These calendars are provided below.
