BIS digs
On September 13, 1994, the Chairman of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System assumed the seat on the Board of Directors of the Bank for International Settlements (BIS) desig- nated for the central bank of the United States. The central bank of the United States has had the right to be represented on the BIS's Board of Directors since the BIS was established more than sixty years ago. For a variety of reasons, however, the Federal Reserve had, until this year, never exercised its right. The Federal Reserve Board's decision to assume representation on the BIS's Board was made in recognition of the increasingly important role of the BIS as the principal forum for consulta- tion, cooperation, and information exchange among central bankers and in anticipation of a broadening of that role. Federal Reserve membership on the BIS Board marks a new chapter in the relationship of the Federal Reserve System with the BIS.
