Treasury and Federal Reserve officials often serve together on US delegations to international organisations - including meetings of G7 and G10 finance ministers and central bank governors; regional organisations such as the Asia Pacific Economic Cooperation Council, the Manila Framework, and the Forum for Latin American Central Bank Governors; the Financial Stability Forum, OECD Working Party 3 and Economic Policy Committee, and G22; and bilateral economic dialogues, for example, with China and India.
Before each such forum, it is typical for the US delegation to meet together to coordinate their participation. Consultations were intense during the Mexico crisis in 1995, the Asian financial crisis in 1997-98, and in the discussions about reforming the international financial architecture since these events.
