These categories of documents referred to in paragraphs 1.1 and 1.2 (immediately above) include documents relating to the Bank’s own decision-making processes (except for agendas and minutes of the Board of Directors’ meetings) and related internal documents, memoranda and other communications that are prepared for, exchanged in connection with, or derived from the Bank’s deliberative or decision-making processes, including any internal documents, memoranda, or other communications that are issued by or between members of the Bank’s Board of Directors, the advisers and staff of the Bank’s Board members, members of the Bank’s management, its staff, or its consultants, attorneys, or agents."

“Proceedings of the Boards of Governors… are confidential in nature in accordance with the By-laws of the Bank, the Regulations of the Board of Governors and the Regulations of the Board of Executive Directors. Consequently, records of the deliberations of the Boards and of their committees (other than those specifically mentioned in this Policy)...will not be made available to the public, unless specific disclosure is approved by the Board.”

“Proceedings of the Board of Directors and its committees are, under the Board’s Rules of Procedure, confidential. Thus, unless disclosure is approved by the Board, documents prepared for the consideration or review and approval of the Directors… are not publicly available.”

"Proceedings of the Board of Executive Directors and its committees are confidential in nature in accordance with the Regulations of the Board of Executive Directors."

"Directors noted that timely access to Executive Board minutes is an important element of the effort to improve the transparency of the Fund's decision making...many Directors considered that, for country issues, the prospect of public access after five years might unduly restrain the candor of the Board debate. It was therefore agreed to shorten the period for access to minutes of Executive Board meetings to 10 years." NOTE: Although the IMF does disclose minutes after ten years, this Resource considers these archival documents, and does not consider the IMF's standard as meeting the indicator's intention to allow public access to minutes in timely fashion. IMF Board minutes include transcripts and summaries.
