Board and Director Evaluation Framework for Financial Institutions

The Reserve Bank requires banking institutions to implement a standardized Board and Director Evaluation Framework mandating the completion of self-evaluation, Chairperson assessment, and individual director forms. These documents utilize a five-point rating scale to systematically measure board strategy, structure, meeting procedures, management relations, and succession planning. Directors must honestly rate each factor, provide explanatory comments, and outline planned remedial actions to address identified weaknesses and ensure continuous governance improvement.
