The Supervisor of Banks mandates comprehensive risk management principles and governance structures for all banking corporations to ensure long-term financial stability. The directive requires institutions to establish a firm-wide risk management framework anchored by a board-approved risk appetite statement and a three-lines-of-defense model.
