HC-6.4.26

While the Compliance function is responsible for oversight and compliance checks across the full spectrum of compliance risk areas, it is recognised that many areas of compliance require specialist skills which can be found in different parts of the organisation, example, the skill sets for compliance with ICAAP can be found either with financial control or with risk management, for compliance with labour laws, the specialist skills are with human resources departments etc. In such cases, the compliance function ensures that the right levels of checks and balances and compliance reporting are available to get comfort that the licensee has adhered to the relevant requirements. In certain instances, it may use external experts with the approval of the relevant authority within the bank.
