CCBG meetings are normally held twice every year – hosted by a SADC-member central bank in April on a rotation basis, and by the South African Reserve Bank every September.   In May, we will host, for the first time in Mauritius, the 19th Summit of the Central Bank Governors of the Francophone countries. We expect the participation of over 34 Francophone countries.
  In August, the Reserves Advisory and Management Program (RAMP), an arm of the Treasury Department of the World Bank, will hold a workshop in Mauritius. RAMP manages a part of our reserves.   In September, we will host a seminar of the Islamic Financial Services Board on the role of Islamic Finance in the development of Africa.
