The mission of the Bank for International Settlements (BIS) is to serve central banks in their pursuit of monetary and financial stability, to foster international cooperation in those areas and to act as a bank for central banks.
\nIn broad outline, the BIS pursues its mission by:
\npromoting discussion and facilitating collaboration among central banks;
\nsupporting dialogue with other authorities that are responsible for promoting financial stability;
\nconducting research on policy issues confronting central banks and financial supervisory authorities;
\nacting as a prime counterparty for central banks in their financial transactions; and
\nserving as an agent or trustee in connection with international financial operations.
\nThe head office is in Basel, Switzerland and there are two representative offices: in the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region of the People’s Republic of China and in Mexico City. Established on 17 May 1930, the BIS is the world’s oldest international financial organisation.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
