  • List of Certain Foreign Institutions Classified As Official for Purposes of Reporting on the Treasury International Capital (TIC) Forms
    NOT FOR PUBLICATION DEPARTMENT OF THE TREASURY JANUARY 2001 Revised Aug. 2002, May 2004, May 2005, May/July 2006, June 2007 List of Certain Foreign Institutions classified as Official for Purposes of Reporting on the Treasury International Capital (TIC) Forms The attached list of foreign institutions, which conform to the definition of foreign official institutions on the Treasury International Capital (TIC) Forms, supersedes all previous lists. The definition of foreign official institutions is: "FOREIGN OFFICIAL INSTITUTIONS (FOI) include the following: 1. Treasuries, including ministries of finance, or corresponding departments of national governments; central banks, including all departments thereof; stabilization funds, including official exchange control offices or other government exchange authorities; and diplomatic and consular establishments and other departments and agencies of national governments. 2. International and regional organizations. 3. Banks, corporations, or other agencies (including development banks and other institutions that are majority-owned by central governments) that are fiscal agents of national governments and perform activities similar to those of a treasury, central bank, stabilization fund, or exchange control authority." Although the attached list includes the major foreign official institutions which have come to the attention of the Federal Reserve Banks and the Department of the Treasury, it does not purport to be exhaustive. Whenever a question arises whether or not an institution should, in accordance with the instructions on the TIC forms, be classified as official, the Federal Reserve Bank with which you file reports should be consulted. It should be noted that the list does not in every case include all alternative names applying to the same institution.

    IV. Interviews Sheikh Abdulla bin Saoud Al-Thani Governor Qatar Central Bank Gulf Affairs: What role is the Qatar Central Bank (QCB) playing in Qatar’s national vision 2030? Sheikh Abdulla bin Saoud Al-Thani: QCB is committed to achieving the goals of Qatar’s National Vi- sion (QNV) 2030 by maintaining monetary and financial stability in Qatar. QCB, along with Qatar Finan- cial Centre Regulatory Authority and Qatar Financial Markets Authority, launched the Second Strategic Plan in 2017, an extension of the First Strategic Plan 2013-2016, for financial sector development. In the Second Strategic Plan 2017-2022, QCB promotes financial market development which supports the QNV 2030 goals of modernisation, economic growth and social development that will help Qatar achieve the status of ‘developed nation’ by 2030. A well-developed financial sector is a necessary condition for transforming Qatar into a developed coun- try by the year 2030. Accordingly, in the second strategic plan, QCB aims to enhance financial sector regulation and to promote institutional cooperation for the development of financial markets. In terms of financial market development, QCB recognises the role of financial innovation and Fintech in meeting future challenges. As for human development, QCB is making efforts for enhancing financial inclusion and financial literacy in Qatar.

  • Monetary Policy in Qatar and Qatar's Attitude Towards the Proposed
    Monetary policy in Qatar and Qatar’s attitude towards the proposed single currency for the Gulf Cooperation Council Fahad Faisal Al-Thani 1. Monetary policy in Qatar, 1940s-2002 A review of the monetary situation, 1940s-1993 Until the early 1970s Qatar was under British influence, and so had all the economic features of the countries linked to the sterling currency area. For most of this period, Qatar did not have its own national currency and remained dependent on foreign banks. The first such bank was a branch of the Eastern Bank (now known as Standard Chartered), which opened in 1950. The situation changed in 1965 when the first domestic bank, Qatar National Bank, was established. Subsequently: · In March 1966 a currency agreement signed between Qatar and Dubai established the Qatar and Dubai Currency Board. A new currency, the Qatar-Dubai riyal, replaced the foreign currencies in circulation in the second half of 1966. · In September 1971 Qatar gained independence. When Dubai merged with the United Arab Emirates in May 1973, the government issued Law no 7 establishing the Qatar Monetary Agency and granting it the powers of a central bank. The Qatari riyal replaced the Qatar- Dubai riyal as the national currency. · In April 1974, Decree no 72 declared that the Qatari riyal would continue to be pegged to the US dollar in the same manner as the Qatar-Dubai riyal. · In March 1975 the basis for the riyal peg was changed from the US dollar to the Special Drawing Right (SDR) at a rate of 4.7619 riyal per SDR with a marginal variation of ±2.25%.
