issuing establishment

Oxford Spanish -English Dictionary
emisor - sora adj 1 (banco/entidad) issuing (before n)
emisor -sora (m, f 1 FIN issuer

often it is the central bank that is responsible for this task (monetary policy), so if you are sure this term corresponds to the central bank, I think it would be preferable to use central bank

Central Bank/ Reserve Bank/ Federal Reserve / Federal Reserve System

“Central Bank” is the key term used everywhere, even though the official name of the institution varies according to the country, as you can see from the references copied below.

The Reserve Bank of Australia
In 1911, legislation established the Commonwealth Bank of Australia. In 1959, this original body corporate was preserved as the Reserve Bank of Australia (RBA) in legislation, specifically to carry on the central banking functions; at that same time, the commercial and savings banking functions were transferred into a new institution, which carried on the old name of Commonwealth Bank of Australia.

Central banks apply short-term, activist monetary policy to reach their long-term targets. These short-term, activist policies need to be formalized to suit seasonal movements and business cycles. Policy implementation that disregards these factors can produce large swings in the financial markets. Short-term activist monetary policy actions may use intermediate targets which can be directly controlled by the central bank. These intermediate targets must be directly related to the ultimate goal.

The Federal Reserve System (called the Fed, for short) is the nation's central bank. It was established by an Act of Congress in 1913 and consists of the seven members of the Board of Governors in Washington, D.C., and twelve Federal Reserve District Banks (for a discussion of the Fed's overall responsibilities, see The Federal Reserve System: Purposes and Functions).
The Congress structured the Fed to be independent within the government--that is, although the Fed is accountable to the Congress, it is insulated from day-to-day political pressures. This reflects the conviction that the people who control the country's money supply should be independent of the people who frame the government's spending decisions. Most studies of central bank independence rank the Fed among the most independent in the world.

(…) When independent, the central bank is responsible for domestic monetary policy, while the government has authority for establishing international monetary commitments and only governments are members of the IMF. Except under flexible exchange rate regimes, the government and the central bank must co-operate in setting exchange rate policy. The relationship between the central bank and the government is generally not a matter of legislation. On the contrary, the Treaty attempts to be explicit. Article 109 is the result of harshly negotiated compromise. The supporters of a domestic price stability oriented policy, led by the German negotiators, feared that exchange rate policy could be used as a back door to governmental control over monetary policy. Other governments, led by the French government, who made concessions on the domestic side, feared to lose control on external monetary policy.

The balance of authority between the central bank and the government differs from country to country. In Germany, under exchange rate stabilisation arrangements such as the EMS, the government maintains its predominance. Under the flexible exchange rate regime that prevails vis-à-vis the dollar, the Bundesbank enjoys some de facto discretion (Henning, 1994). The government must consult with the Buba on exchange rate policy, and the bank is freed from its obligation to intervene when that would undermine domestic price stability. The bank owns all German official reserves and is responsible for conducting foreign exchange interventions. German officials proposed to give the European central bank extensive powers, more important than those now given to the Bundesbank.
