The Related Party Transaction Committee is charged with ensuring that the Bank's dealings with the public and various stakeholders are imbued with the highest standards of integrity. It independently reviews, vets, and endorses all related party transactions such that these transactions are dealt on terms no less favorable to the Bank than those generally available to an unaffiliated third party under the same or similar circumstances. The Chief Audit Executive and Chief Compliance Officer sit in committee meetings as non-voting members.
