(6)Article 3(9), point (e), of Directive (EU) 2015/849 provides that members of courts of auditors or of the boards of central banks are to be considered as being politically exposed persons. By analogy with those functions exercised in a Member State, in the European Central Bank, the President, the Vice-President and the other Members of the Executive Board, the Members of the Governing Council and the General Council, as well as the Chair, the Vice-Chair and the other Members of the Supervisory Board should be considered as being entrusted with prominent public functions. The Governors of the national central banks of the Member States whose currency is the euro, who are Members of the Governing Council and of the General Council of the European Central Bank, and the Governors of the national central banks of the other Member States who are Members of the General Council of the European Central Bank are included in the lists of prominent public functions at national level. Such an inclusion is without prejudice to their status and independence when they exercise the powers and carry out the tasks and duties conferred upon them by the Treaties and by the Statute of the European System of Central Banks and of the European Central Bank, in accordance with Article 7 of that Statute. The Members of the European Court of Auditors should also be considered as being entrusted with prominent public functions.
