Bank of Jamaica Credit Risk Management Standards
The Bank of Jamaica issued these standards to establish minimum policies and procedures for licensees to prudently manage credit risk and control their credit portfolios. The document mandates the development of comprehensive credit risk management programs that include defined risk philosophies, approval authorities, and concentration limits to mitigate exposure. It further requires rigorous processes for credit evaluation, documentation, collection, and ongoing portfolio monitoring through rating systems and internal audits to ensure financial soundness.
