Culture and accountability in Ireland

Culture and accountability in Ireland – what does it mean for a regulated institution?

25 May 2021

Event

Culture and the Central Bank’s proposed new individual accountability framework are now at the top of the agenda. In particular there is an increased focus on how regulated financial institutions are implementing good culture and the proposed introduction of the Senior Executive Accountability Regime (SEAR). The Central Bank has indicated that SEAR will take into account the lessons learned during the implementation of the UK’s Senior Managers and Certification Regime (SMCR).
