01In brief

The short answer.

Payments and Market Infrastructure counterparts are the platforms at GCRI and GRF that work on the same fields under other mandates, among them Cybersecurity and Digital Resilience and Quantum Technologies at GCRI as well as Capital Nexus and AI and Digital Governance at GRF. GCRI studies a field as science, GRF governs it and GRA builds shared financial understanding of it, so each counterpart shows another side of financial stability.

One field, three institutions: Payments and Market Infrastructure and its counterpartsGCRI studies the field as science, GRF governs and convenes it, GRA builds shared financial understanding; the Nexus Universe tests work across them and the competent authorities decide. Design of the arrangement, not a record.

04Counterparts

Where Payments and Market Infrastructure's questions meet science and governance.

Payments and Market Infrastructure reads their evidence for its financial meaning and leaves the science and governance with them.

For Payments and Market Infrastructure, counterparts supply the hazard, systems and governance evidence behind settlement dependencies and recovery; Payments and Market Infrastructure adds the financial reading for FMI risk and operations staff and payment system overseers.

06Key terms

Terms used on this page.

Each term as this page uses it. Where a standard-setting body defines the term, the wording follows that body.

TermDefinition
Counterpart platformA platform at another Consortium institution that works in a shared field under a different mandate: science at GCRI, governance at GRF or financial understanding at GRA.
Field gatewayA GCRI page for one field that links the platforms studying it as science, governing it and building financial understanding of it, with the methods they share.
Science-policy interfaceThe arrangements through which scientific evidence reaches public decisions, including advisory committees, chief scientific advisers, academies and intergovernmental assessments.

09Questions

Questions and answers.

Why three institutions?
Each brings a different mandate: science and evidence at GCRI, governance and convening at GRF, and shared financial-sector understanding at GRA.
