Our Structure
OUR STRUCTURE OF GOVERNANCE
The MICI operates independently of IDB Group Management (departments responsible for the design and financing of the project of each institution, including the staff members of each country office), and reports directly to the Boards of Executive Directors of the IDB and the IIC, and to the Donors Committee of the MIF.
The office operates under the leadership of the MICI Director, who is selected by the IDB’s Board of Executive Directors and to whom he/she reports directly. The Director’s duties and powers are established in the MICI-IDB Policy and the terms of reference for the position are annexed to it. While providing services to the IIC, his/her duties and powers are outlined in the MICI-IIC Policy.
MICI governance is structured around its dual phase processes, and the MICI Director is assisted by two Phase Coordinators responsible for managing each process:
- the Consultation Phase Coordinator
- the Compliance Review Phase Coordinator

ROSTER OF INDEPENDENT EXPERTS
For case management, we rely on external experts that are tailored to the specific needs of each case. We have a pre-identified Roster of independent experts for both Consultation and Compliance Review.
