Summary

This paper reports to the Executive Board on the outcomes of the Central Bank Transparency Code (CBT) pilot reviews.

The CBT pilots provided valuable information on the resources required for the reviews going forward. Staff will continue to offer CBT reviews to the rest of the membership. The staff will report back to the Board in FY2026 on the progress of the CBT reviews and an update to the Code following five years of implementation.
