Strategic priorities

The strategy has four key areas of focus:

• Focused economic and policy insights – deepening our analysis of monetary and financial stability issues. We will analyse and examine policy areas which affect the resilience of the financial system such as key shifts in  global finance, the implications of new technologies and regulatory frameworks. We will also expand data collection and improve the accessibility and usability of statistics.
• Enhanced knowledge-sharing – further supporting dialogue among central banks on key topics. We will strengthen regional engagement, invest in strategic foresight capabilities and develop platforms to foster greater connections among our members.
• Policy-relevant innovation – exploring new technologies to leverage opportunities and tackle risks relevant to central bank policy. Projects will address emerging priorities for central banks, including artificial intelligence (AI), tokenisation and cyber resilience.
• Strengthened banking services – enhancing customised banking services to meet the needs of the central bank community. We will continue to diversify our client base, broaden access to trading venues and support central bank access to liquidity.

Strategic enablers within the BIS will support these activities.
