Our departments

5 operational departments

Deposit and Consignment Office (DCK/CDC)

The Deposit and Consignment Office is responsible for receiving, managing and releasing funds from various categories of consignments via its application e-DEPO. While some of these funds must be deposited with the Deposit and Consignment Office, others may be deposited freely by private or professional clients.

The Deposit and Consignment Office also offers a loan service to local authorities via the platform e-CREDIT.

Financial commitments

The Financial Commitments department is at the heart of our administration's financial management. It groups together several cells:

  • State Guarantees and Financial Controls: supports financial stability through the management of state guarantees, and oversees the consolidation of public assets to reduce debt.
  • Accounting: centralises the Belgian State's income and expenditure, thus ensuring rigorous management of public finances.
  • Forecasts: establishes the Treasury's monthly position and forecasts cash movements.

Guarantee Fund for Financial Products (GF)

The Guarantee Fund for Financial Products protects your assets. It intervenes if an affiliated institution is no longer able to fulfil its obligations. In that case, the Fund will repay your assets. Together with the Resolution Fund, the Guarantee Fund contributes to financial stability and security in Belgium. 

Compliance (COM)

This department manages the administrative follow-up and granting of derogations from national and international financial sanctions and fights money laundering and terrorist financing (e.g. UBO register). In addition, they also manage undertakings for collective investment (UCIs). The purpose of an undertaking for collective investment is to raise capital from a large number of investors in order to invest it collectively in different types of assets (shares, bonds, etc.).
