Bank of England? Last time I checked Great Britain was not part of the Euro zone (and they were going to leave the EU at that), nor was it one of the cantons... What did I miss?

Shouldn't they better ban the British pound first (some part of)?



Bank of England is a shareholder of the ECB and has 13.6743% share of the ECB

What about Swiss frank? Do they have a hand in it too?

Quoting from wikipedia:


https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Swiss_National_Bank

Quote
As of 2015 the Nationalbank was privately owned,[8] with the majority of shares belonging to cantons and banks of cantons, and the smaller remainder in the possession of private individuals.[9][10] Shares of the SNB existed within SIX Swiss Exchange from 1907 onward


So probably all central banks have a share in eachother. They are all private.
