The Registrar of Banks issued Circular 5/2004 to mandate the inclusion of Risk Committee and Directors Affairs Committee activities in annual trilateral discussions for the 2004 and 2005 calendar years. This expansion of scope, required under sections 64A and 64B of the Banks Act 1990, aims to enhance corporate governance by evaluating the functioning and compliance of these newly established committees. Banks must submit specific documentation, including committee minutes and membership details, one month prior to the discussions, which will be attended by committee members, external auditors, and senior management.
