Compliance functions play a vital role financial institutions’ risk management efforts. Such role has traditionally been to ensure that financial institutions operate with integrity and adhere to applicable laws, regulations, and internal policies. Increasingly, Compliance functions are challenged to maintain effective Compliance Management Programs (‘CMP’) which prevent and detect instances of non-adherence to internal & external regulations as well as inappropriate business conduct. International regulators responded to several high-profile cases in recent years, and further enhanced and clarified regulatory requirements and supervisory expectations.
