employee trainings on new values and culture.
One of the largest banks significantly improved public disclosures by adopting new policies and processes on ethics, and publicly committing to high-quality practices to ensure financial stability and economic opportunity.⁵ At the core of these efforts was the goal to be client-oriented, with accountability to stakeholders and regulators alike.
It was in the areas of risk management and board oversight that banks made the most visible changes. They created risk committees at the board level and implemented company-wide risk management programs. For example, we saw how a leading bank in the U.S. also established a new position of Chief Risk Officer reporting to the board and tasked with ensuring that incentive programs in the organization do not encourage excessive or unnecessary risk-taking.⁶
One of the largest banks also showed corporate leadership by publicly acknowledging responsibility for unethical practices and recognizing past mistakes.⁷ They shifted their focus to identify and monitor “material risk-taking” in their organization and increased managerial oversight. Other banks publicly committed to seeking responsible business growth and to conduct their business in a more transparent way.⁸
