Press briefing from the Board of Governors meeting in Tallinn
On March 22, NIB holds the annual meeting of the Board of Governors in Tallinn. The eight Nordic-Baltic member states are represented in the Board of Governors, which is the Bank’s supreme decision-making body. The meeting is chaired by Mart Võrklaev, Chair of Board of Governors, Minister of Finance of Estonia.
Before the meeting, NIB brings together its decision-making bodies and distinguished speakers—President of Estonia Alar Karis, Secretary General of the Nordic Council of Ministers Karen Ellemann, President & CEO of Ericsson Börje Ekholm—for discussions in a seminar “Stronger together – the new geopolitical reality and its impact on the Nordic–Baltic region”.
The meeting in Tallinn is the first in person since Vilnius 2013. NIB Governors use the occasion to discuss how the Bank can best assist them in the current context where the regional cooperation by the Nordic-Baltic owner countries is gaining momentum. The Governors also decide on the dividend payment to the owner countries based on the Bank’s 2023 results.
We invite you to follow the press briefing on NIB’s impact and value-add in the Nordic-Baltic region in the current circumstances.
