| The IMF has developed codes of good practices to make policies of 
			central banks and financial agencies, including ministries of 
			finance, "transparent", that is, provided to the public in a clear, 
			informative and timely manner.
 In the Reports on the Observance of Standards and Codes, the IMF 
			(or the World Bank) summarize the extent to which countries observe 
			such codes of good practice and other internationally recognized 
			standards and codes.  The IMF has recognized 12 areas and associated standards as 
			useful for the operational work of the IMF and the World Bank: 
			accounting; auditing; anti-money laundering and countering the 
			financing of terrorism (AML/CFT); banking supervision; corporate 
			governance; data dissemination; fiscal transparency; insolvency and 
			creditor rights; insurance supervision; monetary and financial 
			policy transparency; payments systems; and securities regulation. AML/CFT was added in November 2002. 
			ROSCs in banking and financial sector areas are usually carried out 
			in the context of FSAP. ROSCs are 
			prepared and published at the request of the member country. They 
			are used to help sharpen the institutions' policy discussions with 
			national authorities, and in the private sector (including by rating 
			agencies) for risk assessment. Short updates are produced regularly 
			and new reports are produced every few years. IMF: ROSC REPORTS FOR
