FRANKFURT -- The Slovenian central bank will become a party to the European gold agreement, the European Central Bank said Friday.

"In the interest of clarifying its intentions with respect to its gold holdings, Banka Slovenije agrees with and becomes a party to the joint statement dated March 8, 2004," the ECB said.

The maximum annual sales of the Slovenian central bank, as well as the total sales, both as specified in this agreement by its signatories, will remain unchanged over the period of the agreement.

The central bank also agreed not to expand its gold leasing and its use of gold futures and options during the period of the agreement, the ECB said.
