Formerly the President's Foreign Intelligence Advisory Board (PFIAB), now the President's Intelligence Advisory Board (PIAB), with its component Intelligence Oversight Board (IOB), is an independent, nonpartisan element within the Executive Office of the President, which has been in existence for over 50 years. The current Board is co-chaired by former Senators Chuck Hagel and David Boren.

Its subordinate Intelligence Oversight Board oversees the Intelligence Community’s compliance with the Constitution and all applicable laws, Executive Orders, and Presidential Directives. It complements and supplements, rather than duplicates the oversight roles of the Director of National Intelligence, Department and Agency Inspectors General and General Counsels, and the Congressional Oversight Committees.

The Board has a small professional staff headed by an Executive Director appointed by the President.
