ROAD TOWN, Tortola, VI - The 41st Annual Conference of the Caribbean Group of Banking Supervisors (CGBS) is set to take place in the Virgin Islands in the first half of 2024.

This is according to information from the BVI FSC where for the first time in 18 years, the Commission announced its role as the host for this event, underscoring its commitment to advancing financial stability and regulatory cooperation in the region.

The CGBS was established in 1983 under the aegis of the CARICOM Central Bank Governors, with the specific mandate to enhance and coordinate the harmonisation of the bank supervisory practices in the English-speaking Caribbean, with a view to bringing them in line with internationally accepted practices. 

FSC RGC set June 2024 

“The Commission is also expected to host the Financial Stability Board (FSB) Regional Consultative Group (RCG) for the Americas Plenary Meeting from 17 to 18 June 2024," a release from FSC added. 

The hosting of the new events comes following the appointment of the Commission’s Managing Director and CEO Kenneth Baker to serve a two-year term as non-FSB co-chair for the RCG Americas on July 1, 2023.

The Commission will also host the Group International Finance Centre Supervisors (GIFCS) Plenary from 13 to 14 November 2024 and this will be the first time the VI will host this Plenary since being admitted as a member in 2008.
