Since 2014, it has also been Malta's national competent authority within European Banking Supervision.

It has been amended a number of times, most recently by Acts I and IV of 2007 in order to provide for the bank's membership within the Eurosystem.

[3] The Central Bank of Malta is located in an early 20th-century building.

The bank occupied the building since 1967, but made arrangement for the lease of the premises in 1968, with a contract lasting almost hundred years.

The interior was eventually demolished in 1968, keeping the façade, to be redeveloped and housing the present Central Bank of Malta.
