  • Provide advice and guidance to other commissions on financial matters.
  • Ensure that the IOC and all its subsidiaries have an efficient and transparent budgeting and financial control process, and that the Financial Policies and Procedures approved by the IOC Executive Board are respected.
  • Make recommendations to the IOC Executive Board on the strategy to be followed for the Olympic Movement financial investments, and monitor on a quarterly basis, through the Treasury Committee, that such strategy is followed or updated based on changing conditions in the financial markets.
  • Perform a review of the completed financial statements before submission of these to the IOC Executive Board and IOC Session for approval.
