Annual Reports
The Reserve Bank prepares an annual report of its activities and financial statements. In 1998 a separate Payments System Board was established to foster stability of the financial system; it issues its own annual report. The Bank also provides an annual report on the equity and diversity of its workplace. Each of these reports are tabled in parliament.
