Our site gives the general public and more specialized audiences direct and immediate access not only to our releases, publications, speeches, and technical information, but also to more easily understandable  4  BIS Review 56/2004  information about the Bank and monetary policy.
Thus, the Web supports our objective of being proactive in reaching the public, the markets, and specialized audiences with news and information. Last year, we were honoured to be presented with the “Central Bank Website of the Year” award by Central Banking Publications and Lombard Street Research. Nonetheless, we continue to work at improving and expanding the site.
