The new compliance principles require sufficient workforce in compliance departments, reduced long-term workers, separation of duties, and a standard for whistleblower systems.
Assessments of internal control will take up a larger portion of management evaluations in the first half of this year. Internal control will be an independent segment for assessment, with more weight given to it, and the evaluation will be linked to the organization‘s overall evaluation ranking.
Concerning savings banks and credit finance businesses, assessments in the “financial troubles” category will be expanded. More weight in the assessment of internal controls will be sought, too, at mutual savings banks.
“An overhaul of internal control at financial groups is necessary,” FSS Governor Lee Bok-hyun said.
Representative Yun also noted that financial institutions should make their best effort to build reliability so that their customers can trust them.
“Higher responsibility and awareness will have to be sought by having strong sanctions on any small compliance failures, as any mischief by staff or executives at a financial institution can affect the company’s reliability,” Yun said.
