No public releases of the meeting agendas or discussions are made. Regular reports on the Committee meetings are made by the Chairman to the Committee of Governors of the G10 Central Banks.
The Committee has developed relationships with many non-CPSS central banks in order to help strengthen payment systems globally. This involves a number of different activities including participation by some of the central banks in certain of the Committee's working groups, circulation to central banks worldwide of internal Committee papers on analytical and policy aspects of payment systems, co-organisation of seminars and workshops with regional payment system groups, and publication of reference studies on payment systems in individual countries.
