    Network of EU IFIS

    The Network of EU Independent Fiscal Institutions was established in September 2015 following the ratification of the Bratislava Agreement. It currently has a total of 32 members.

    The institution has a leadership that is renewed every 2 years, during which time a chairman and a vice-chairman are elected from among its members. In January 2021, Richard van Zwol, president of the Council State of the Netherlands, assumed the presidency of the IFI Network. Esther Gordo Mora, director of AIReF’s Economic Analysis Division, currently holds the position of vice president.

    Since its foundation in 2015, the IFIs Network has had 4 presidents: José Luis Escrivá (2015-2019), who was also president of AIReF from 2014 to 2020; Seamus Coffey (2019-2020), president of the Irish Fiscal Advisory Council from 2016 to 2020; Sander van Veldhuizen (2020-2021), Division Leader of the CPB – Netherlands Bureau for Economic Policy Analysis; and Richard van Zwol (2021-present).

    The Independent Authority for Fiscal Responsibility (AIReF) held the presidency of the European IFI Network for 4 years, from November 2015 to November 2019. Participation in the EU IFI Network is voluntary and open to all EU IFIs. It aims to provide a platform on which to exchange views, expertise, and resources in areas of common interest. In addition, the Network has a Committee for EU Affairs that aims to take positions on issues relating to relations with EU institutions, including the EU tax framework.

    The Network of Independent Fiscal Institutions of the European Union produces the European Fiscal Monitor, a publication that includes the IFIs’ individual contribution on the main developments and challenges in the economy, public finances, and fiscal frameworks of the EU Member States.
