Journal of Financial and Monetary Economics, 2016, vol. 3, issue 1, 162-164 Abstract: TAIEX is the Technical Assistance and Information Exchange instrument of the European Commission. TAIEX supports public administrations with regard to the approximation, application and enforcement of EU legislation as well as facilitating the sharing of EU best practices. It is largely needs-driven and delivers appropriate tailor-made expertise to address issues at short notice in three ways: workshops - EU Member State experts present specific areas of EU legislation in workshops to a large number of beneficiary officials; expert missions - EU Member States experts are sent to the beneficiary administration to provide in-depth advice on the transposition, implementation or enforcement of a specific part of EU legislation; study visits - a group of three practitioners from a beneficiary administration take part in a study visit to an EU Member State‘s administration. The TAIEX mission is to provide institution building support in all areas of the EU acquis with the view to support efforts in alignment, application and enforcement of legislation of the acquis in the Beneficiary Countries. The TAIEX mandate to provide assistance covers: Turkey, the former Yugoslav Republic of Macedonia; Montenegro, Serbia, Albania, Bosnia and Herzegovina and Kosovo*; Turkish Cypriot community in the northern part of Cyprus; Algeria, Armenia, Azerbaijan, Belarus, Egypt, Georgia, Israel, Jordan, Lebanon, Libya, Republic of Moldova, Morocco, Palestine, Syria, Tunisia and Ukraine. All countries covered by the Partnership Instrument; EU Member States in the framework of the administrative cooperation within the policies managed by DG for Regional and Urban Policy. TAIEX assistance is open to: Civil servants working in central public administrations; Judiciary and law enforcement authorities; Parliaments and civil servants working in Parliaments and Legislative Councils; Representatives of social partners, trade unions and employers‘ associations; TAIEX does not provide direct support to civil society, private citizens or to individual companies. This year 2016 marks the 20th anniversary of the launch of TAIEX, the Commission‘s instrument of technical assistance and information exchange. An occasion not only to celebrate, but to both look back and into the future.
