CGAP is housed at the World Bank, but operates as an independent entity. It has its own governance structure, designed with an agile board that includes microfinance practitioners and leaders from outside the funder community while preserving member representation.
CGAP consists of:
The Council of Governors (CG) is the membership and governance body of CGAP. The CG is comprised of representatives of all of CGAP's members: bilateral and multilateral development agencies, private foundations, and international financial institutions.
The Executive Committee (Excom) functions as CGAP's executive governing body (board). The Excom is made up of CG representatives as well as microfinance industry leaders.
The Investment Committee (IC) is the fiduciary oversight body that acts on behalf of the Council of Governors. The IC is comprised of senior officers of the World Bank Group.
The Operational Team implements CGAP's work. It is organized among four thematic teams and two internal teams.
CGAP Working Groups are formed by CGAP members and other organizations that are interested in researching and exchanging information on specific areas of access to finance in which they have expertise.
