(2) Pursuant to Article 4(2) of Law 13/1994 on autonomy of the Banco de España and to Articles 29(3) and 31 of its Rules of Procedure, the accounts of the Banco de España are audited by independent external auditors as provided for in Article 27 of the Protocol on the Statute of the European System of Central Banks and of the European Central Bank, and under the terms of Law 19/1988 on the auditing of accounts(2) regarding the eligibility, mandate and rotation of the auditors.
