    The General Secretariat is responsible for implementing and monitoring the decision-making process and the provision of secretariat services for all the EIB’s governing bodies. It defines institutional strategy (including the Operational Plan), provides economic analysis on the employment and growth impact of EIB activities and potential new products, and coordinates and develops relations with EU institutions, international and development financing agencies and non-governmental organisations. It is also in charge of communications and corporate responsibility.
