The Bank has representative offices in London, New York and Tokyo, with an office at the House of the Euro in Brussels, and a number of officers are seconded as financial attachés to some Italian embassies and consulates, under the agreement signed in July 2007 with the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, aimed at enhancing institutional cooperation in the economic and financial fields, in support of Italy's interests.
The representative offices and financial attachés analyse the economic policy debate and macroeconomic and financial developments in the host countries and provide advice to the Italian embassies and consulates on such matters; they interact on the spot with local monetary and supervisory authorities, institutional interlocutors and economic and financial communities, including Italian entities with head offices in the host countries; they also provide information on the Italian economy to the local authorities, institutional investors and business communities.
In addition to the host country's economy, the representative offices and financial attachés also monitor the economies of other neighbouring countries, in order to facilitate closer relations with their local economic and financial authorities and improve knowledge of their respective markets, thus providing a wider coverage.
Together with the ECB and the other participating central banks, the office at the House of the Euro contributes to carrying out the representative work of the Eurosystem in Brussels; furthermore, it liaises with the economic and financial community there and promotes analyses of economic and financial issues that are of interest to the Bank.
