Compliance Framework

The purpose of the compliance function is to assist the bank in managing its compliance risk, which can be defined as the risk of legal or regulatory sanctions, financial loss, or loss to reputation a bank may suffer as a result of its failure to comply with all applicable laws, regulations, codes of conduct and standards of good practice. Compliance risk is sometimes also referred to as integrity risk, because a bank's reputation is closely connected with its adherence to principles of integrity and fair dealing. Banks must be satisfied that effective compliance policies and procedures are followed and that management takes appropriate corrective action when breaches of laws, rules and standards are identified.

Adopting a framework of principles based on the BSBC Compliance and the Compliance Function in Banks and BSP rules and regulations, compliance with the laws, rules and standards that govern banking activities helps to maintain a bank's reputation with its shareholders, customers, employees and the markets. Our asynchronous seminar incorporates sound practice guidance to assist banks in designing, implementing and operating an effective compliance function. To optimize its usefulness to all banks, the lecture stresses that a single framework of principles for effective compliance risk management does not restrict individual banks to a single organizational or operational approach. However, each bank must be prepared to demonstrate that the approach adopted is effective in dealing with the bank's unique compliance risk challenges.

This session will help the participant to learn more the purpose of the compliance function in the banks in managing its compliance risk, which can be defined as the risk of legal or regulatory sanctions, financial loss, or loss to reputation a bank may suffer as a result of its failure to comply with all applicable laws, regulations, codes of conduct and standards of good practice.

Compliance risk is sometimes also referred to as integrity risk, because a bank's reputation is closely connected with its adherence to principles of integrity and fair dealing, thus compliance risk management system shall be designed to specifically identify and mitigate risks that may erode the franchise value of the BSFI.
