Note that the designation "yes" simply means that the Securities are intended upon issue to be deposited with one of the International Central Securities Depositaries (ICSDs) as common safekeeper and does not necessarily mean that the Securities will be recognised as eligible collateral for Eurosystem monetary policy and intra-day credit operations by the Eurosystem either upon issue or at any or all times during their life. Such recognition will depend upon the ECB being satisfied that Eurosystem eligibility criteria have been met.
