Work Priorities

IADI focuses on strengthening global financial stability by promoting effective deposit insurance systems. Each year, IADI’s work priorities address emerging challenges, while maintaining a strategic, multi-year approach.

IADI operates under a five-year strategic plan, with key priorities reviewed and updated annually by the Executive Council (EXCO) to ensure continued relevance in the face of global financial developments. This process allows for flexibility in responding to new challenges while remaining committed to long-term objectives.

The IADI 2027 Work Priorities are the first annual work programme under the IADI Strategic Goals and Objectives 2026–2031, which the Executive Council adopted at its meeting of 26 March 2026. As in previous years, the priorities remain open to adjustment in the light of external developments and of the resources available, and they build on work already under way within IADI’s Executive Council, Council and Regional Committees.

The 2027 programme follows a year in which the emphasis lay on preparing for the implementation of the revised Core Principles for Effective Deposit Insurance Systems. In 2026, IADI advanced the review of the Handbook for the Assessment of Compliance with the Core Principles, took forward its analysis of digitalisation, and completed its Strategic Goals and Objectives for 2026 to 2031.

IADI 2027 Work Priorities

The 2026 work priorities build directly on the achievements of the 2025 work programme, which focused on finalising the revision of the IADI Core Principles for Effective Deposit Insurance Systems (Core Principles), addressing the interaction between deposit insurance and resolution, and analysing the implications of technological innovation and digitalisation.

In 2026, the emphasis will shift towards the practical implementation of the updated Core Principles, with a key focus on updating the Handbook for the Assessment of Compliance with the Core Principles for Effective Deposit Insurance Systems (‘Handbook’).

The IADI 2025 Work Priorities align with the IADI Strategic Goals and Objectives 2022-2026. They remain subject to adjustment considering external events and resource implications and build on ongoing initiatives taken forward within IADI’s Council Committees.

The key priorities for IADI in 2024 are informed by the report published in December 2023 on the 2023 banking turmoil and the potential implications and emerging policy issues for deposit insurers as well as by the IADI Strategic Goals and Objectives 2022-2026.
