Reserve Bank of India (Commercial Banks - Compliance Function) Directions, 2026

Introduction

Compliance function is a key element of a bank’s corporate governance framework and an integral part of assurance, alongside internal audit and risk management processes. The principles governing the Compliance function are aligned with the Basel Committee on Banking Supervision framework, adapted to the Indian operating environment, and extend to bank-led Financial Conglomerates for managing group-wide compliance risk. While minimum standards are prescribed, the bank shall organise its Compliance function and prioritise compliance risk management in a manner commensurate with its size, complexity, risk profile, and organisational structure.

In exercise of the powers conferred by Section 35-A of the Banking Regulation Act, 1949, and all other provisions / laws enabling the Reserve Bank of India (‘RBI’) in this regard, RBI being satisfied that it is necessary and expedient in the public interest so to do, hereby, issues Directions hereinafter specified.

Chapter I - Preliminary

A. Short Title and Commencement

These Directions shall be called the Reserve Bank of India (Commercial Banks - Compliance Function) Directions, 2026.
These Directions shall come into effect immediately upon issuance.

B. Applicability

These Directions shall be applicable to Commercial Banks (hereinafter collectively referred to as 'banks' and individually as 'bank').

For the purpose of these Directions, ‘Commercial Banks’ means banking companies (other than Small Finance Banks, Payments Banks, and Local Area Banks), corresponding new banks, and the State Bank of India, as defined respectively under clauses (c), (da), and (nc) of Section 5 of the Banking Regulation Act, 1949.

C. Definitions

In these Directions, unless the context states otherwise, the terms herein shall bear the meaning assigned to them below:

The Board shall ensure that the bank has an appropriate Compliance Policy in place and shall oversee its effective implementation. The Board shall review the policy at least annually.
The Board shall ensure that compliance issues are resolved effectively and expeditiously by senior management with the assistance of compliance staff. If necessary, the Board may delegate these tasks to the Audit Committee of the Board (ACB).
The Board or ACB shall review the Compliance function on a quarterly basis. A detailed annual review should also be placed before the Board / ACB. The Chief Compliance Officer (CCO) should be an invitee to such meetings.
The Board shall ensure that the Compliance function and the Internal Audit function of the bank are kept separate.

B. Role of the Senior Management

The Managing Director and Chief Executive Officer (MD & CEO) shall ensure the presence of an independent Compliance function and adherence to the compliance policy of the bank.

C. Compliance Policy

The Board-approved Compliance policy of the bank should clearly spell out its compliance philosophy, expectations on compliance culture covering tone from the top, accountability, incentive structure, effective communication and challenges thereof, structure and role of the Compliance function, authority, and role of the CCO, processes for identifying, assessing, monitoring, managing, and reporting on compliance risk throughout the bank.
The Compliance policy shall, inter alia, adequately consider the size, complexity, and compliance risk profile of the bank, expectations on ensuring compliance to all applicable statutory provisions, rules, and regulations, various codes of conduct (including the voluntary ones) and the bank’s own internal rules, policies and procedures, and a disincentive structure for compliance breaches. The policy should emphasise building up compliance culture, vetting of the quality of reports provided to RBI by the bank.
The policy should cover the following aspects:

(1) Establishment of an independent Compliance Department at the Head Office headed by the CCO with adequate support staff and its role and responsibilities specified.

(2) Compliance units in controlling offices and branches specifying the role and responsibility of each functionary within such compliance units.

(3) Measures to ensure independence of the Compliance function.

Chapter III - Scope, Structure and Responsibilities

A. Scope

The Compliance function shall ensure adherence with applicable statutory and regulatory requirements as well as applicable codes, of Self-Regulatory Organisations.

B. Group-wide Compliance

A group or enterprise-wide compliance programme shall assist senior management and the Board in understanding the concentration, level, and evolution of legal and reputational risks and in identifying control processes requiring enhancement. The Compliance function shall ensure that controls and procedures capture the appropriate information to allow senior management and the Board to better perform their Risk Management functions on a group-wide basis.

Explanation: A Group is defined as parent and its subsidiaries (as defined in AS-21). However, the bank is also encouraged to promote a similar compliance culture across its associates and joint ventures (as defined in AS-23 and AS-27 respectively).

C. Structure

Depending on its branch network, size and complexity of the business operations, and sophistication of products and services offered, the bank shall decide on the organisational structure and composition of its Compliance unit. The bank may, however, lay down the structure within the overall framework of these Directions and should avoid all potential conflicts of interest. Regardless of how the Compliance function is organized within the bank, it should be independent and sufficiently resourced, its responsibilities should be clearly specified, and its activities should be subject to periodic and independent review.
The bank shall set up a Compliance Department at the Head Office of the bank or Controlling / Head Office in India for foreign banks operating in India through branch/es. The CCO shall head the Compliance Department, with the overall responsibility of coordinating the identification and management of the bank's compliance risk and supervising the activities of other Compliance function staff.
In case of large banks, Compliance function staff may be located within operating business lines. Internationally active banks (including foreign banks having a presence in India) may also have group and local Compliance officers reporting to their Regional / Global Head while working closely with the local Chief Executive Officer on regulatory / compliance issues.
Each Department in the Head Office, controlling offices, the branches, and / or Strategic Business Units shall have distinct Compliance function, and the functions should be undertaken by specifically identified / designated compliance official/s who would report to the CCO.
The staff in the Compliance Department at the Head Office, controlling offices, and branches / Strategic Business Units shall primarily focus on compliance functions. However, in small sized banks with limited branch network, the compliance staff may be assigned other duties while ensuring that there is no conflict of interest. Under no circumstances, the compliance staff should be assigned audit / inspection duty to avoid conflict of interest in view of the fact that all products and processes are expected to be cleared by the Compliance Department, and its audit needs to be carried out independently by a separate set of staff.
Depending on the business model, size, structure of the bank, entire compliance responsibilities may not be carried out by the Compliance Department and may be vested in different departments. For Compliance function staff in independent support units (e.g., legal, financial control, risk management), a separate reporting line from staff in these units to the CCO may not be necessary. However, these units / departments shall co-operate closely with the CCO and there should invariably be an appropriate mechanism for co-ordination among these departments to enable the CCO to perform the assigned responsibilities effectively.
Compliance function staff in operating business units or in local subsidiaries may have a reporting line to operating business unit management or local management, but they should also have a reporting line through to the CCO for their compliance responsibilities.
The remuneration of the Compliance functionaries shall not be related to the business line for which they exercise Compliance responsibilities though it could generally be related to the financial performance of the bank as a whole.

D. Staffing

The bank shall provide adequate staff to the Compliance Department to ensure that the compliance units discharge their functions without human resource constraints. The bank shall put in place appropriate succession planning to ensure that the post of compliance officer(s) does not remain vacant.
Apart from the basic qualifications, the compliance staff should preferably have fair knowledge of law, accountancy, and information technology and also adequate practical experience in various business lines and audit / inspection functions to enable them to carry out their duties effectively. In order to keep the compliance staff up-to-date with developments in the areas of banking laws, rules, and standards, regular and systematic education and training in new products and services introduced in the banking industry as well as in the areas of corporate governance, risk management, and supervisory practices may be considered.

E. Roles and Responsibilities

The Compliance Department at the Head Office shall play the central role in identifying the level of compliance risk in each business line, product, and process, issue instructions to operational functionaries and formulate proposals for mitigation of such risk. It shall periodically circulate the instances of compliance failures among staff along with preventive instructions.
The responsibilities of the Compliance function shall be carried out under a Compliance programme that sets out its planned activities. The Compliance programme shall be risk-based and subject to oversight by the CCO to ensure appropriate coverage across businesses and co-ordination among Risk Management functions. The bank shall implement a comprehensive Compliance plan replete with Compliance testing and review structures.
Inspection / audit findings should serve as a feedback mechanism for the Compliance Department for assessing the areas of compliance breaches / failures. A checklist on the compliance aspect may be made part of the inspection report for the inspectors / concurrent auditors to verify the level of compliance.
Compliance function shall vet the guidelines / circulars issued by the bank, for compliance with regulatory guidelines before these are disseminated amongst the operational units. It shall also incorporate a robust mechanism to ensure that regulatory guidelines / instructions are promptly issued / disseminated within the bank and also monitor compliance with them.
The Compliance Department shall serve as a reference point for the bank's staff from operational departments for seeking clarifications / interpretations of various regulatory and statutory guidelines.
The Compliance function shall on a pro-active basis identify, document, assess the compliance risks associated with the bank's business activities and products. The compliance risks in all new products and processes should be thoroughly analysed and appropriate risk mitigants by way of necessary checks and balances should be put in place before launching. The bank shall subject all new products to intensive monitoring for the first six months of introduction to ensure that the indicative parameters of compliance risk are adequately monitored.
The bank shall develop function-wise compliance manuals duly approved by the CCO if their operating manuals do not already contain specific sections or chapters on compliance and provide these to the staff associated with the respective functions.
The Compliance Department shall, at frequent intervals, interact with Legal Department, Operational Risk Management Department, Taxation Department, and Audit / Inspection Department of the bank to take stock of the latest developments. The bank should provide Compliance officers with access to all information they require and the right to conduct investigation and report the findings to the CCO.
The bank shall ensure close co-ordination and partnership between Compliance and Business Operations functions. The interaction may be formalised by making the CCO a member of the various inter-departmental committees in the bank.
The Compliance function shall monitor and test compliance by performing sufficient and representative compliance testing, and the results of such compliance testing shall be placed before the Board / ACB / MD & CEO.
The Compliance function shall also consider ways to measure compliance risk (e.g., by using performance indicators) and use such measurements to enhance compliance risk assessment.
The Compliance function shall empower the Compliance staff to conduct compliance reviews / investigations, whenever required. The authority to use external experts for the purpose of investigation, if required, should be left to the discretion of the CCO.
The bank shall ensure that the Compliance function is free to report to senior management on any irregularities without fear of disfavour from management or other staff members. The Compliance function should also have the right of direct access to the Board or the ACB, as the case may be, bypassing normal reporting lines.
Non-compliance with any regulatory guidelines and administrative actions initiated against the bank and / or corrective steps taken to avoid recurrence of the lapses should be disclosed in the annual report of the bank.
The code of conduct for employees should envisage working towards earning the trust of the society by dealing with customers in a fair manner and conducting business operations consistent with rules and regulations. Due weightage may be given to record of compliance during performance appraisal of staff at various levels. The bank shall examine staff accountability for all compliance failures.
Compliance function shall ensure full compliance with all specified guidelines enlisted in the templates oriented towards Compliance assessment under the Risk-Based Supervision (RBS) framework. Since the regulatory guidelines forming part of such template are neither exhaustive nor static and are expected to be updated on an annual basis, the bank shall, therefore, strive to put in place an exhaustive Compliance framework encompassing all guidelines emanating from RBI, identify potential breaches and remedy them up-front.
Compliance units shall specifically devise a time-bound strategy to ensure that compliance with Monitorable Action Plan (MAP) / Risk Mitigation Plan (RMP) prescribed pursuant to the Annual Financial Inspection / Risk Based Supervision process is achieved within the time frame. The bank shall comply with all MAP / RMP points well before the commencement of the subsequent supervisory cycle and / or within the periods prescribed for fulfilling the requirements of MAP / RMP.
The Compliance function may have specific statutory responsibilities (e.g., fulfilling the role of anti-money laundering officer). The bank shall carry out an annual compliance risk assessment in order to identify and assess major compliance risks faced by it and prepare a plan to manage the risks. The Annual Review shall cover the following aspects:

(1) Compliance failures, if any, during the preceding year and consequential losses and regulatory action as also steps taken to avoid recurrence of the same.

(2) List of all major regulatory guidelines issued during the preceding year, and steps taken by the bank to ensure compliance.

(3) Independence of Compliance function.

(4) Scope of compliance procedures and processes.

(5) System of internal control to minimise compliance risk.

(6) Compliance with fair practices codes and adherence to standards set by self-regulatory organisations and accounting standards.

(7) Progress in rectification of significant deficiencies pointed out by the Internal audit, Statutory audit, and RBI inspection reports and position of implementation of recommendations made therein.

(8) Strategy for the next year including restructuring of Compliance Department, if necessary, and posting / transfer / training of staff.

Apart from the exhaustive annual review, a monthly report on the position of compliance risk may be put up to the senior management / MD & CEO.
The Compliance function shall advise and assist the senior management on compliance laws, rules, and standards, including keeping them informed on developments by establishing written guidance to staff on the appropriate implementation of compliance laws, rules, and standards through policies and procedures and other documents such as compliance manuals, internal codes of conduct, and practice guidelines.
The Compliance function shall also attend to the compliance of directions from other regulators (including Insurance Regulatory & Development Authority of India and Securities and Exchange Board of India) in those cases where the activities of the bank are not limited to the banking sector. For example, a bank which is acting as a corporate agent for distribution of other companies’ insurance products may receive direction from Insurance Regulatory & Development Authority of India, which should be a part of the Compliance function. The Compliance function shall bring to the notice of RBI, any discomfort conveyed to the bank on any issue by other regulators
A bank with business across various jurisdictions shall ensure that it complies with applicable laws and regulations in all such jurisdictions and that the bank, its Compliance function structure, and its responsibilities are consistent with local legal and regulatory requirements. It is for local business units to ensure that compliance responsibilities specific to each jurisdiction are carried out by the individuals with appropriate local knowledge and expertise, with oversight from the CCO in co-operation with the bank’s other risk management functions.

F. Compliance Culture

For the Compliance function to be effective, it must be supported by a healthy Compliance culture within the bank. It is important that the need to comply with instructions meticulously is periodically re-iterated to all the staff in the bank through continuous and mandatory training on compliance aspects, and appropriate disciplinary measures through staff accountability framework / policies for non-compliance. Compliance should not be viewed as a responsibility of the Compliance Department alone but as a culture that should pervade across the bank.

G. Quality Assurance and Internal Audit

The bank shall develop and maintain a quality assurance and improvement program covering all aspects of the Compliance function. The quality assurance and improvement program shall be subject to independent external review periodically (at least once in three years).
The Compliance function shall be subject to Internal Audit. The Internal audit function should keep the CCO informed of audit findings related to Compliance. Compliance risk shall be included in the risk assessment methodology of the Internal Audit function, and the audit programme shall cover the adequacy and effectiveness of the bank's Compliance function including testing of controls commensurate with the perceived level of risk.

Chapter IV - Chief Compliance Officer

The Compliance function in the bank shall be adequately enabled and made sufficiently independent. Such an independent Compliance function shall be headed by a designated CCO who may also be recruited from outside the bank.

A. Appointment

The candidate for the post of the CCO shall be selected on the basis of a well-defined selection process with an appropriate ‘fit and proper’ evaluation / selection criteria (‘Fit and Proper’ criteria may be examined and reported from the perspectives of competency, integrity and conflict of interest, among others) and recommendations made by the senior executive level selection committee constituted by the Board for the purpose. The selection committee shall recommend the names of candidates suitable for the post of the CCO in order of merit and Board shall take final decision in the appointment of CCO.

Provided that in respect of foreign banks operating under the branch model, the Regional or Head Office of Compliance would be treated as equivalent to the Board.

There should be no vigilance case or adverse observation from RBI pending against the candidate identified for appointment as the CCO.
The CCO shall not be more than 55 years of age at the time of appointment.

Provided that if a person identified as CCO is above the age of 55 years, but had continuous association with the Compliance function either as CCO or otherwise, the age limit of 55 years may be taken as the date from when the continuous association with the Compliance function started for the identified CCO. Illustratively, if a person identified for CCO role is more than 55 years old but has been continuously associated with the Compliance function prior to completing the age of 55 years, she/ he would be eligible for such appointment.

The CCO shall have an overall experience of at least 15 years in the banking or financial services, out of which minimum five years shall be in the Audit / Finance / Compliance / Legal / Risk Management functions.

Provided that Risk Management functions shall also include control functions within the business lines. Therefore, if a regional / zonal / business head had the requisite responsibility / experience in the control functions of the business lines for five years or more, they shall be eligible for the post of CCO under this condition.

The CCO shall have good understanding of industry and risk management, knowledge of regulations, legal framework, and sensitivity to supervisors’ expectations.

B. Authority, Stature, and Independence

The CCO shall be appointed for a minimum fixed tenure of not less than three years. The ACB / MD & CEO shall factor this requirement while appointing CCO.
The CCO may be transferred / removed before completion of the tenure only in exceptional circumstances with the explicit prior approval of the Board after following a well-defined and transparent internal administrative procedure.
The CCO shall be a senior executive of the bank, preferably in the rank of a General Manager or an equivalent position (not below two levels from the MD & CEO).
The CCO shall have the ability to independently exercise judgement. They should have the freedom and sufficient authority to interact with regulators / supervisors directly and ensure compliance.
The CCO shall have direct reporting lines to the MD & CEO and / or Board / ACB of the bank. In case, the CCO reports to the MD & CEO, ACB shall meet the CCO quarterly on one-to-one basis, without the presence of the senior management including MD & CEO.

Provided that in respect of foreign banks operating under the branch model, Board / ACB would be treated as equivalent to the Regional or Head Office Compliance.

The CCO shall not have any reporting relationship with the business verticals of the bank and shall not be given any business targets. Further, the performance appraisal of the CCO shall be reviewed by the Board / ACB.
The bank shall ensure that there is no ‘dual hatting’ i.e. the CCO shall not be given any responsibility which brings elements of conflict of interest, especially the role relating to business. Roles which do not attract direct conflict of interest like role of anti-money laundering officer can be performed by the CCO in those banks where principle of proportionality in terms of bank’s size, complexity, risk management strategy, and structures justify that.
The CCO shall not be member of any committee which brings their role in conflict with responsibility as member of the committee, including any committee dealing with purchases / sanctions. In case the CCO is member of a committee, they may have only advisory role.
The CCO shall have the authority to communicate with any staff member and have access to all records or files that are necessary to enable them to carry out entrusted responsibilities in respect of compliance issues.

C. Reporting Requirements

The bank shall provide prior intimation to the Senior Supervisory Manager of the RBI, before appointment, premature transfer / removal of the CCO.

D. Roles and Responsibilities

The CCO shall assist the senior management in effectively managing the compliance risks faced by the bank. Typical core elements of the mandate of CCO must include the design and maintenance of compliance framework, training on the regulatory and conduct risks, and effective communication of compliance expectations.

The CCO shall ensure compliance of supervisory observations made by RBI and / or any other directions in both letter and spirit in a time bound and sustainable manner. They should be the nodal point of contact between the bank and the RBI. The CCO shall necessarily be a participant in the quarterly informal discussions held with RBI.
