[edit] Title

Is there a reason we prefer this title to "Bank of Spain"? I've made that at least redirect here. -- Jmabel | Talk 23:25, Oct 25, 2004 (UTC)

[edit] "no natos"

I've written "The two Counsellors who serve as members of the Executive Commission are designated by the Governing Council, after nomination by the Governor, from among their own members." The Spanish-language article uses the expression "de entre sus miembros no natos." I do not know what this means. The Spanish-language article is a bit florid in it language throughout. Anyway, can anyone clarify? -- Jmabel | Talk 00:21, Oct 26, 2004 (UTC)

  • Some members of the Governing Council may be so just because of their position; for example the Vice President of the National Securities Market Commission is always automatically a member of the Council. Those are the "nato" members. --RiseRover 17:16, 12 February 2006 (UTC)
  • Ah. So nato here would be ex officio. I don't think we have a term for the opposite of that in English. - Jmabel | Talk 21:57, 19 February 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Currency

Should there not be a mention of the Bank having administered the peseta, prior to the adoption of hte euro? - Jmabel | Talk 21:14, 26 November 2006 (UTC)
