Implementation of the Equator Principles
Equator Principle implementation is required by internal bank policy and is additionally referenced in external public policies. The related internal policies cover all business units and support groups within the bank. Due diligence on Equator Principle transactions begins with front line business units which are responsible for adherence to credit and risk management policy, including applicability and adherence to the Equator Principles. Further input and support is provided by Risk Management, business line heads, and subject matter experts on ESG related issues and the Equator Principles. Two senior level subject matter experts are focused on risk management and oversight related to implementation and specific transaction review process under the Equator Principles.
