Bulgaria and Croatia have joined the ERM II exchange rate mechanism and the Banking Union, and in the next 3 years the two countries will prepare for the adoption of the single European currency, the European Central Bank has announced. Thus, the euro area may expand with new members for the first time since 2015, when Lithuania became its 19th member.
