Board of Governors
The governance of the Pacific Islands Development Bank is vested in the Board of Governors who represent the owners/shareholders of the bank. Each member country appoints two governors, one representing the Executive Branch and one representing the Legislative Branch.
The Board of Governors holds an annual meeting in March or April of each year to review the Bank´s operations and make major policy decisions. The PIDB governors are ultimately responsible for overseeing the Bank´s activities and administration, although in practice, they delegate many of those responsibilities to the Board of Directors.
