Division 1 Payments statistics are compiled by the European Central Bank (ECB) through specific harmonised data collections managed at national level by each national central bank (NCB). The data compilation is structured in the form of nine tables as described below containing national data on each Member State whose currency is the euro (hereinafter a ‘euro area Member State’). Tables 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6 and 9 should be reported by payment service providers (PSPs), while Tables 7 and 8 should be reported by payment system operators (PSOs). There are two versions of Tables 4 and 5, only one of which should be reported. Tables 4a and 5a should be reported by all PSPs which have not been granted a derogation pursuant to Article 4, whereas reporting agents which have been granted a derogation pursuant to Article 4(2) and (3) should report the statistical information in Tables 4b and 5b.
