Central Bank Organizational Chart & Senior Management
Following the review of the Central Bank's first Corporate Plan for 2001-2002 last year, a new Corporate Plan for the years 2003-2005 is now in place. During the review process, no change to the Bank's structure was deemed necessary. This was based on a firm understanding that the structure approved in the Bank's first Corporate Plan in 2001 is still in line with the Bank's functional long-term strategies in attaining the major targets and objectives in 2003-2005.

The following Chart "Central Bank of Samoa Structure" gives the organizational structure of the Central Bank at the end of October 2007.

The organizational structure consists of six (6) departments divided into two (2) functional groups. Specific responsibilities for each group are highlighted in the following text of this website.

There were minor changes which took place, which had to do more with staff movement and not the hierarchical structure itself. Some of these changes included internal promotions at the management level, and the positions of the Secretary to the Bank and the Internal Auditor which became vacant since February and August 2002 respectively.
