Special Purpose Vehicles (SPV)

This page provides news and user documentation on SPV reporting.

We collect financial data on special purpose vehicles or SPVs, which perform securities transactions. This is done at the request of and under the supervision of the European Central Bank (ECB). The ECB uses these data in different ways. For example, to define monetary policy in the Economic and Monetary Union (EMU). An important objective of the ECB’s monetary policy is to ensure stable prices within the EMU. It is therefore important that the ECB receives these data.
