About this statute

This provision says the regulation’s purpose is to establish a risk management framework for deposit-taking microfinance institutions. This article defines the terms used in the regulation. A deposit-taking microfinance institution must create, document, and implement a comprehensive risk management framework that is approved and overseen by its board. Deposit-taking microfinance institutions must submit their complete risk management framework to the Central Bank, and later significant changes must be submitted within 15 days after Board approval. The board and management must actively and effectively oversee the institution’s risk management framework, and the board has listed oversight responsibilities. The institution’s risk structure may include a risk committee or independent function, and it must fit the institution’s size and complexity. The Central Bank may review the structure and require changes.
