Third, the Bank, as well as institutions such as the Non-Bank Financial Institutions Regulatory Authority and Statistics Botswana, benefit from targeted technical assistance and skills development provided by the 2  IMF from the headquarters in Washington DC or through the Regional Technical Assistance Centres, such as AFRITAC South based in Mauritius, to which Botswana is affiliated.
This technical assistance  enables improvements in areas such as legislation, macroeconomic policy frameworks and formulation, regulatory approaches, as well as structuring and governance of institutions as necessary. In addition to improving operational competencies, access to training and skills development also encompasses interaction with other practitioners globally to share experiences.
