An institution formed by the European Central Bank (ECB) and the national central banks of the Member States that have adopted the euro. As long as there are EU Member States that have not adopted the euro, a distinction must be made between the Eurosistema, which groups together the countries that have adopted the euro, and the European System of Central Banks, which groups together the central banks of all EU countries.
