The CNB is the central bank of the Czech Republic, the supervisor of the Czech financial market and the Czech resolution authority. It is established under the Constitution of the Czech Republic and carries out its activities in compliance with Act No. 6/1993 Coll., on the Czech National Bank, as amended.
The Czech National Bank endeavours to keep inflation low, stable and therefore predictable. It achieves its inflation target of 2% by setting interest rates and other monetary policy instruments. The Bank Board decides about them on the basis of a macroeconomic forecast and an assessment of its risks and uncertainties.
The CNB sets macroprudential policy by identifying, monitoring and assessing risks to the stability of the financial system and, in order to prevent or mitigate these risks, contributes by means of its powers to the resilience of the financial system and the maintenance of financial stability.
The CNB is the supervisory authority for the financial market in the Czech Republic. It lays down rules safeguarding the stability of the banking sector, the capital market, the insurance industry and the pension scheme industry. It regulates, supervises and, where appropriate, issues penalties for non-compliance with these rules.
