The Bank of England’s Centre for Central Banking Studies (CCBS) runs an extensive programme of events for central bankers and financial regulators from around the world. Our mission is to encourage best practice in central bank policymaking and operations, and to build networks across the global central bank and regulatory community.
We have four main areas of activity:
We run a full and varied programme of events and training courses, both in London and abroad, which reflects the diversity of the Bank’s responsibilities. Our courses encourage frank and thought-provoking discussions, and provide opportunities for people taking part to share insights and get a broader perspective on their area of expertise.
Our seminars, workshops and special events reflect the latest thinking and research on central bank policy and operations. Our speakers are experts in their field, drawn from the Bank of England, London financial markets, academia and the event participants themselves.
CCBS events are aimed at practitioners from central banks and regulatory authorities who can bring their expertise and experience to the table. Seminars are usually a mix of lectures, discussions and case studies to encourage sharing of experience and different approaches used around the world.
London events are held at the Bank of England.
In light of the coronavirus (Covid-19) pandemic, CCBS on-site seminars and programmes are suspended for the foreseeable future.
We have published a revised programme of virtual events (webinars) which will run from August 2020 and will be supplemented with recorded presentations and reference material.
You can now apply to attend a CCBS webinar using our online registration form. Deadlines for applications close one week before a scheduled event. We aim to confirm your place within one working day of applying.
Please note: you will need to provide your official organisation email address when registering.
Virtual events offer the opportunity to engage with a greater number of participants. Consequently we can accept multiple applications from each organisation. However, it remains at the event director’s discretion to select candidates they believe will be most suitable to attend. Please be aware that because of technical problems some of our webpages still note that applications are limited to one per central bank or regulatory authority. This will be rectified over the coming weeks.
You will no longer be required to complete an administration form if you have been accepted as a participant for an event.
