Change of Name
On 20 November 2018, at the FEI Extraordinary General Assembly, the FEI Bureau underwent a name change to become the FEI Board. This change was done in the spirit of modernisation, consistency with other international sports governing bodies, and clarity. The term ‘Board’ is considered more precise, clear and recognisable.

Marina Sechina (RUS) has, for the duration of the current crises, temporarily delegated the Board functions on the FEI Regional EEA Group Deputy Chair, Mr Sergey Buikevich (KGZ)
