Department Description:

What is Compliance?

Acting in Compliance consists of knowing and respecting the rules issued by the regulators. So that all Group staff can act in a compliant manner, the rules have to be expressed in a clear and simple way, and every member of staff must be made aware of these rules and trained accordingly. The purpose of these rules is to ensure the transparency of the Bank’s relations with its clients and supervisors, as well as its integrity.

Compliance is thus the bedrock of trust between the Bank and its stakeholders. The Compliance division is organized around:

Teams devoted to each business line in charge of ensuring the compliance of business activities to regulations, to the oversight of compliance risks and managing the deal flow.

Central teams in charge of defining compliance norms and standards, performing controls, as well as ensuring key cross-business functions such as digital transformation and training.
