Newsflash (15 April 2008): Selection of the EIF Trust Fund Manager

The IF Board has selected the United Nations Office for Project Services (UNOPS) to serve as the EIF Trust Fund Manager (TFM).

UNOPS is a UN agency with headquarters in Copenhagen, Denmark.  It also has an established office in Geneva, and it is expected that the TFM activities will be handled out of the Geneva office by staff dedicated to the EIF, supported by regional offices in Africa and Asia.

Meetings will take place with UNOPS in the coming days to agree on a timetable for the operationalization of the EIF Trust Fund.
