Cooperation with the Bank for International Settlements
The Bank for International Settlements (BIS) is one of the oldest partnership forums for central banks. Eesti Pank was one of the founders of the BIS in the 1930s and Governor of Eesti Pank attends the regular meetings of the heads of central banks.
The meetings address the most topical monetary policy issues, economic and financial market situation in different regions, and financial sector management and supervision. The BIS committees develop the international best practices and standards for financial sector supervision and payment systems, and coordinate certain statistics related tasks of central banks.
