The FEI Board held a teleconference on 24 September. The main resolutions taken on this occasion are listed below.

BUDGET 2025

The 2025 FEI budget was a key focus during the teleconference. Since the introduction of the Human Athlete registration in 2006, the annual fee has remained at CHF 10, despite the significant expansion of services and digital solutions provided by the FEI over the past two decades.
In recognition of these evolving demands, the FEI Board unanimously approved an increase in the Human Athlete registration fee from CHF 10 to CHF 55. This adjustment ensures that the FEI can continue delivering essential services to the Athletes.

More detailed information will be provided at a dedicated session at the upcoming FEI General Assembly 2024 in Abu Dhabi (UAE).
