‚Strategickou zásobou Eurosystému‘ (‚Eurosystem strategic stock‘ - ESS) se rozumí zásoba nových a upotřebitelných eurobankovek skladovaná určitými národními centrálními bankami s cílem uspokojit poptávku po eurobankovkách, kterou nelze uspokojit z logistických zásob [6].
It should be noted that the concept of “coins in circulation” is not applied at national level because it cannot be determined whether coins put into circulation in a participating Member State are circulating there and whether they have been returned from circulation to coin-issuing entities in other participating Member States. Euro collector coins are not included as these coins are only legal tender in the Member State of issuance.
