The Meeting of the Central Banks and Monetary Authorities of the OIC Member Countries – 2010 will be jointly organised by the Central Bank of the Republic of Turkey and the Statistical Economic and Social Research and Training Centre for Islamic Countries (SESRIC) in Istanbul, Republic of Turkey, on 26-27 September 2010.

The previous meeting was held in 3 October 2009 in Istanbul and was attended by H.E. Mr. Ali Babacan, Minister of State and Deputy Prime Minister of the Republic of Turkey, Governors of Central Banks and Monetary Authorities of OIC Member Countries, the OIC General Secretariat and COMCEC Coordination Office.

In this respect, it is worth mentioning here that SESRIC actively proceeds in enhancing the effective implementation of the Capacity Building Programme for Central Banks in the OIC Member Countries. SESRIC has recently disseminated the updated version of the related questionnaire and will immediately continue planning/implementing the short-term training programmes as soon as replies are received.
