(BIS).   
1''Ownership - control.''


An international organisation fostering international monetary and financial cooperation, the BIS serves as a bank for central banks and also hosts a number of international organisations.  
Owned or controlled by the state.


Customers are exclusively central banks and international organisations.
For example, the ''public sector'' of the economy.


The BIS was established by agreement between the parties (plus Switzerland) to arrangements after World War I for payment of reparations by Germany to the principal allied victors. Its mandate and membership was extended and it is now a principal hub of cooperation between central banks and non-central-bank bank supervisors generally.

The BIS has 60 central banks as its members.
Potentially available for part-ownership - or control - by any member of the public.

*Basel Committee on Banking Supervision;
*Financial Stability Board;
*International Association of Insurance Supervisors (IAIS); and
*International Association of Deposit Insurers.


3.  ''Services - information - offerings.''


The BIS is headquartered in Basel, Switzerland.
Relating to a service, information or offering available to the public generally.
 
For example, a ''public bond.''
 
 
4.  ''Law.''
 
Relating to states, and relations between states, rather than individuals, companies or other non-governmental entities.
 
For example, ''public international law'' (contrasted with ''private international law'').
