    Compliance is integral to the Bank’s ethical, professional and business approach.

    The independent EIB Compliance function promotes the highest standards of integrity and ensures that they are applied to all of the Bank’s activities, as outlined in our integrity policy and compliance charter.

    As well as combatting money laundering and the financing of terrorism, the Compliance function strongly supports a corporate culture based on ethical values and professional conduct, while it ensures efficient management and oversight of non-financial risks as comprising operational risk, information and communication technology (ΙCT) risk and overall compliance, conducts risks and reputational risks.

    Roles of the EIB compliance function

    The Compliance function is co-responsible for the identification, assessment, monitoring and reporting of non-financial risks. The Bank adheres to the Basel Committee on Banking Supervision’s definition of compliance risk as “risk of legal or regulatory sanctions, material financial loss, or loss to reputation” to which an EIB Group member may be exposed, arising from a failure to comply with applicable laws, rules and regulations.
