Development History
The European Central Bank was established on June 1, 1998 in Frankfurt am Main, Germany, with approximately 1350 employees from all 27 EU countries.
The goal set by the European Council in June 1988 was to gradually achieve the Economic and Monetary Union (EMU). It stipulated that a committee chaired by Jacques Delors, the then chairman of the European Commission, would study and propose specific stages leading to this alliance.
The Economic and Monetary Union is one of the ultimate goals of the establishment of the European Community. Since its establishment, member states have cooperated on monetary policy matters. At that time, the treaties related to the European Community did not specify the Economic and Monetary Union, let alone authorize it. The Central Bank Governor's Committee was only an advisory organization.
