Since January 1, 1999, the OeNB has been an integral part of the European System of Central Banks (ESCB). Annex IV of the ECB Guideline on the Legal Framework for Accounting and Reporting in the European System of Central Banks contains notes to the composition of balance sheet items.

The financial statements are prepared in the formats laid down by the Governing Council of the ECB. Therefore, hardly no comparison can be drawn to financial statements before 1999.

Discrepancies may arise from rounding.
