real effective exchange rate (EER) of the euro

Real euro EERs are nominal euro EERs deflated by a weighted average of foreign, relative to domestic, prices or costs. They are, thus, measures of price and cost competitiveness. See also effective exchange rate (EER) of the euro, nominal effective exchange rate (EER) of the euro

real-time gross settlement (RTGS) system

A settlement system in which processing and settlement take place on a transaction-by-transaction basis in real time.

realignment

realised gains or losses

Gains/losses arising from the difference between the sale price of a balance sheet item and its (adjusted) cost.

reclassifications

An aggregate in monetary statistics that comprises changes in the MFI balance sheet that are due to a change in the MFI reporting population, to corporate restructuring, to a reclassification of assets and liabilities and to the correction of reporting errors (whenever the reporting error can be totally removed from the series, no specific reclassification needs to be reported). The occurrence of these factors gives rise to breaks in the series and, hence, affects the comparability of successive end-of-period levels.

reconciliation

A procedure to verify that two sets of records issued by two different entities match.

A contractual and technical arrangement that allows issuer and investor central securities depositories (issuer and investor CSDs) to hold and transfer securities through an account with a third CSD (a “middle CSD”), which acts as an intermediary.

remote access

Direct access by an institution established in one country to a system (e.g. a payment system, a securities settlement system or a central counterparty (CCP)) established in another country.

remote participant

It prepares the measures and the process for the potential orderly resolution of a bank by ensuring the continuity of its critical functions. See also recovery plan
