Regulatory authorities require financial institutions operating across multiple supervisory sectors to formally appoint and approve a primary Compliance Officer alongside an Alternate Compliance Officer. This directive mandates that institutions subject to more than one supervisory authority must secure explicit designation or approval for both roles to ensure continuous regulatory oversight. The updated framework explicitly covers banking, insurance, fintech and payments, as well as bureau de change entities, ensuring unified compliance standards across all designated sectors.
