The Central Bank of Ireland issued the Corporate Governance Requirements for Credit Institutions 2015 to establish minimum core standards and additional obligations for licensed credit institutions. The document mandates robust governance frameworks, including specific rules on board composition, the separation of Chairman and CEO roles, and strict limits on the number of directorships held by individuals. It further requires annual compliance statements, immediate reporting of material deviations, and imposes administrative sanctions for non-compliance.
