About IADI
[edit]The International Association of Deposit Insurers (IADI) is the global standard-setting body for deposit insurance systems. It contributes to the stability of financial systems by enhancing the effectiveness of deposit insurance and promoting international cooperation on deposit insurance and bank resolution arrangements in active partnership with other international organisations. IADI draws upon its membership to provide guidance on the establishment or enhancement of effective deposit insurance systems, as well as technical assistance outreach, educational programs and research.
Founded in 2002, IADI is a non-profit organisation constituted under Swiss law and domiciled at the Bank for International Settlements (BIS) in Basel, Switzerland. Along with the other standard setters and committees hosted and supported by the BIS, IADI is a part of the Basel Process,[1] sharing with its host and peers the common goal of global financial stability and ensuring that jurisdictions’ financial systems operate effectively, support economic growth, and interact in an increasingly global environment.
IADI's standards, outlined in its Core Principles for Effective Deposit Insurance Systems (Core Principles), are part of the Key Standards for Sound Financial Systems of the Financial Stability Board (FSB); and are used in the Financial Sector Assessment Program (FSAP) reviews conducted by the International Monetary Fund (IMF) and the World Bank. As a member of the FSB's Resolution Steering Group, IADI contributes to the design of international standards and guidance for effective resolution regimes.
Governance and organisation
[edit]IADI is governed by the General Meeting of its Members and IADI Executive Council (EXCO). The General Meeting elects the officers of IADI, including the President and Treasurer. As of 2023, the President was Alejandro Lopez, chief executive officer of the Seguro de Depósitos Sociedad Anónima of Argentina.
EXCO ensures the smooth functioning of IADI's affairs, and is structured as an inclusive body which involves the active participation of its membership. As of 2023, there were 25 EXCO members and they are elected at the IADI Annual General Meeting (AGM), typically to serve three-year terms. EXCO establishes committees to support IADI's objectives.

Core Principles for Effective Deposit Insurance Systems
[edit]To enhance deposit insurance effectiveness and meet its Members’ needs, IADI undertakes research and issues core principles and supporting guidance. The Core Principles for Effective Deposit Insurance Systems[2] (Core Principles) were first issued by IADI and the Basel Committee on Banking Supervision (BCBS) in June 2009, and updated by IADI in October 2014. IADI's Core Principles promote best international standards in deposit insurance and support the stability and soundness of financial systems. IADI, in collaboration with the BCBS, IMF, World Bank Group, European Forum of Deposit Insurers and European Commission developed the Methodology for the Assessment of Compliance with the Core Principles. Such assessments include self-assessments and Financial Sector Assessment Programs (FSAPs) reviews conducted by IMF and the World Bank, as well as country and peer review programs conducted by the FSB.

[edit]- ^ "Basel Process". refers to the BIS’s role in hosting and supporting the work of international groups – six committees and three associations – engaged in standard-setting and the pursuit of financial stability, including: the Basel Committee on Banking Supervision (BCBS), the Committee on the Global Financial System (CGFS), the Committee on Payments and Market Infrastructures (CPMI), the Irving Fisher Committee on Central Bank Statistics (IFC), the Financial Stability Board (FSB), IADI, the International Association of Insurance Supervisors (IAIS), and the Financial Stability Institute (FSI). The Basel Process is based on three key features: synergies of co-location; flexibility and openness in the exchange of information; and support from the BIS’s expertise in economics, banking and regulation.
