Organisation and governance
The IFC is a global network of statisticians, economists, policymakers and other stakeholders interested in statistical and broader data issues relevant to central banks. It comprises the designated representatives of the full institutional members. It elects an Executive that manages the affairs of the IFC in accordance with the Statutes, decisions and guidelines of the Committee.
The BIS All Governors’ Meeting is responsible for overseeing the work of the IFC.
IFC Executive
The IFC Executive is the steering committee of the IFC. Members of the Executive are Deputy Governors or other senior officials with responsibility for data and statistics in their respective central banks. The Executive meets at least twice a year to steer the IFC’s work.
The IFC Chair, who may be a Governor, also chairs its Executive. The IFC Executive consists of 11 members, including the chair and two vice chairs. Members of the Executive are selected by the Plenary and are endorsed by the BIS All Governors’ Meeting at the time of the approval of the IFC annual report. Executive members serve a three-year term, which is renewable.
