The operating procedures for the exchange rate mechanism in Stage Three of Economic and Monetary Union (ERM II) are laid down in the agreement of 1 September 1998 between the European Central Bank (ECB) and the national central banks (NCBs) of the Member States outside the euro area (ERM II Central Bank Agreement). As of 1 May 2004, the NCBs of the ten new Member States of the European Union have become parties to the ERM II Central Bank Agreement.
