Project is maintenance and development for a bundle of applications. The described Developer is located at the "Banknotes and Payments" Team.

Currency Information System (CIS2):
CIS2 compiles information about banknotes and coin supplies from NCBs and planned Eurosystem NCBs, namely ash related statistical data (e.g. stock and flow data on banknotes and coins, cash infrastructure data and data on banknote recirculation activities). It specifically records recirculation activities of third parties and cash infrastructure to support the availability of banknotes in all countries issuing the Euro.
The application plays an important role in the decision-making process related to cash. It holds source data from NCBs, NHTO entities and ECI banks as well as Mints, Treasuries, commercial banks and other cash handlers (e.g. CITs). The inventory gives aggregates at NCB level (in stock, issued, sorted, transported, destroyed) based on input provided by the NCBs. The CIS2 core system is currently accessible by the ECB and NCBs.

CIS2 supports the following processes:

• monitoring of banknote and coin supplies,
• stock management and (re)distribution of banknote and coin stocks within the Eurosystem,
• definition of future euro banknote production requirements,
• monitoring of operational cash activities of third parties,
• monitoring Member States' compliance with approved coin issuance and with Article 101 and 102 of the Treaty (10% limit).
