49. RISK MANAGEMENT
The Bank is exposed to specific risks in connection with the deposit-taking and lending businesses, the management of the investment portfolio, and the environment within which the Bank operates.
The Bank’s goal in risk management is to ensure that the Bank understands, measures and monitors the various risks that arise, and that the Bank’s organization adheres, as far as reasonably
and practically possible, to the policies and procedures which are established to address these risks. The Bank has only recently implemented new risk management procedures and produced its
risk management manual. The Bank is also in the process of improving the policies and procedures to meet international best practices.
The Bank is primarily exposed to credit risk, market risk including liquidity risk, interest rate risk, trading risk, foreign exchange risk and derivative instrument risk, and operational and legal risks.
Historically, the Bank focused on credit risk through the Risk Management Committee, while the management of market risk was undertaken by the Assets and Liabilities Committee, the Treasury
and Global Markets Division and the Market Operations and Legal Risk Division. However, the Bank instituted a major internal reorganization to establish a centralized and independent risk
management structure, which is able to focus on strengthening the internal risk management policies and procedures.
Accordingly, on August 1, 2001 the Bank established a central Risk Management Directorate to identify, assess, monitor and manage all principal risks in accordance with defined policies and
procedures. The Risk Management Directorate is divided into a number of groups relating to credit risk, market risk, portfolio and operating risk and credit recovery. This Directorate is managed by a
director of the Board in charge of risk management, and supports the Risk and Capital Committee. The Risk and Capital Committee reports directly to the Board of Directors and the Board of
Commissioners. The committee is comprised of members of the Board of Directors and group heads of various business units within the Bank, including the Risk Management Directorate, and is
chaired by the director in charge of risk management. The Risk and Capital Committee, together with the Risk Management Directorate, is responsible for establishing bank-wide risk management
policies, reviewing internal limits, establishing the credit policies and interest rates, monitoring the implementation of credit policies and procedures and establishing the criteria for risk identification,
measurement and mitigation. The Bank has engaged in the past, and continue to engage, the services of international consultants to assist in this process.
