The Decisions adopted by the Governing Board on the occasion of its 296th regular meeting:

  1. In its 296th session, the Governing Board of the Bank of Slovenia changed the Decision on the Capital Adequacy of Banks and Savings Banks. From now on, the investments into own shares shall be valuated by purchase value in the calculation of capital and capital adequacy.
  2. The Governing Board of the Bank of Slovenia also adopted a Decision on the creation and management of a register of transactions´ accounts. In addition to data on the holder and other data of an account, the register must also include data on the creation of records on the non-executed Decisions on execution or compulsory collection. The register on transactions´ accounts will be available at the website of the Bank of Slovenia from 1 October, 2004 onwards.
  3. The Governing Board of the Bank of Slovenia also adopted the Decision on Opening Special-Status Transactions´ Accounts. It is therefore an issue of opening accounts when holders of transactions´ accounts in their names open accounts for third parties. A bank balance in such an account is deemed a shared claim of individual eligible persons, and not a claim of the holder of a transactions´ account.
  4. The Governing Board of the Bank of Slovenia modified the Decision on the Narrowest Liquidity Band Which a Bank Must Provide in such a way that it reduced benefits arising SWAP agreements concluded with commercial banks to no more than the average amount of foreign exchange temporary sold to the Bank of Slovenia in August 2004.
  5. The Governing Board of the Bank of Slovenia also dealt with a claim filed to provide Mr. Darko Tisaj with licence to hold the office of a member of the Management Board of »Nova Kreditna banka Maribor d.d.« /New Maribor´s Bank of Lending, Joint-Stock Bank/. The candidate meets nearly all conditions to hold the office of a member of the Management Board, except for the work experience required. Once the missing condition has been fulfilled, the Bank of Slovenia issues licence to hold the office of a member of the Management Board.
