"The regulation is necessary in order to give practical effect to Article 34(3) of the Statute of the European System of Central Banks (ESCB), which provides that, within the limits and under the conditions adopted by the Council, the ECB is entitled to impose fines or periodic penalty payments on undertakings for failure to comply with its regulations and decisions.
The fines and periodic penalty payments imposed by the ECB are subject to the following limits: fines: the upper limit is EUR 500 000; periodic penalty payments: the upper limit is EUR 10 000 per day of infringement. Periodic penalty payments may be imposed in respect of a maximum period of six months following the notification of the decision to the undertaking.
The decision on the appropriate sanction is based on the principle of proportionality. Under the regulation, the Executive Board of the ECB has the power to decide whether an infringement has occurred and whether sanctions should be imposed; however, the national central banks may initiate and also conduct part of the infringement procedure."@en1
