Tender for ESMIG Connectivity Services

Danmarks Nationalbank’s payment system Kronos2 plays a central role in the infrastructure for handling payments in Denmark. From 2025, the settlement of Danish kroner will relocate to the new European consolidated payment and securities settlement platform, Target Services, which is operated by the European Central Bank, ECB. The migration to Target Services will bring several benefits for both Danmarks Nationalbank and payment system participants. The project for the migration of the Danish payments infrastructure to the Target Services platform is called TargetDKK. The Eurosystem Single Market Infrastructure Gateway (ESMIG) is the technical component delivered as part of the Target Services platform. Via the ESMIG, Danmarks Nationalbank can access the market infrastructures that the Eurosystem provides.
