TIFS - Training Initiative for Financial Supervision
![]() |
Polish Financial Supervision Authority established in 2009 the Training Initiative for Financial Supervision (TIFS). TIFS is a training centre for supervisors of all sectors of the financial market (banking, capital market, pension and insurance) from European countries. Previously, a similar Initiative had been carried by the General Inspectorate of Banking Supervision.
The aim of TIFS is creating a discussion forum offering the possibility to share practical experience as well as developing the supervisory framework and capacity among supervisors by seminars targeted to the specialists of the supervisory institutions connected with supervisory regulations, including inspectors, micro and macro analysts, crises situations specialists, legal experts and accountants. TIFS promotes cooperation, exchange of experience and effective communication among the middle management staff of the supervisory institutions from Central and Eastern Europe, as well as the EU countries. The TIFS Initiative identifies the training needs and, basing on the results, prepares the seminar programs. Even though, all of the seminars are predominantly based on the Polish speakers and case studies, TIFS actively involves the specialist of participating countries as well as international experts.
TIFS is acting for the stability of financial sectors by means of effective implementation of the best supervisory practices and standards using the experience gained by Poland and other countries.
