ECB announces two one-day liquidity-providing fine-tuning operations
The European Central Bank (ECB) has decided to conduct two one-day liquidity-providing fine-tuning operations (FTOs). The first will be allotted on 20 December 2011 and the second on 28 February 2012.
As announced on 8 December 2011, the ECB will conduct two longer-term refinancing operations with a maturity of approximately 36 months; the first will be settled on 22 December 2011 and the second on 1 March 2012. In view of the fact that two regular main refinancing operations will mature on 21 December 2011 and 29 February 2012, the two one-day liquidity-providing FTOs will be conducted according to the following schedule:
| Operation | Announcement and allotment date | Settlement date | Maturity date | Maturity |
| 1-day FTO | Tuesday, 20 December 2011 | Wednesday, 21 December 2011 | Thursday, 22 December 2011 | 1 day |
| 1-day FTO | Tuesday, 28 February 2012 | Wednesday, 29 February 2012 | Thursday, 1 March 2012 | 1 day |
The operations will be launched at 9.30 a.m. on the announcement day and the deadline for the submission of bids will be 10.05 a.m.
