1.1. Basic principles

ExtraNet

ExtraNet is an e-business platform at the disposal of all business units of the Deutsche Bundesbank. It offers customers a range of services via cutting-edge internet technology.

Thanks to ExtraNet, procedures that previously involved the use of paper or data storage media are now fully automated and streamlined.

Note: ExtraNet documentation only provides details of the infrastructure and the services offered by ExtraNet. Details about individual ExtraNet services (business unit applications) are available on the Deutsche Bundesbank’s website (http://www.bundesbank.de/) under the heading of the desired business unit (e.g. Tasks/Banking supervision).
