EIOPA has two governing bodies: the Board of Supervisors (BoS) which is the main decision-making body and the Management Board (MB), whose role is to ensure the Authority carries out its mission and performs the tasks assigned to it.

EIOPA works closely with the other European Supervisory Authorities (ESAs) in the framework of the Joint Committee on issues of cross-sectoral relevance and cooperates with the European institutions.

EIOPA can also count on the work of its two Stakeholder groups, composed of representatives of the private sector, consumers and academics. They advise and assist the authority in a number of topics. In order to effectively protect the rights of parties affected by decisions adopted by the EIOPA, a Joint Board of Appeal has been set up. Finally, EIOPA has a number of internal working groups and can count on a talented and committed staff to perform its duties.
