Calendar of Reviews

RBI/2014-15/592
DBR No.BC.93/29.67.001/2014-15

May 14, 2015

The Chairman & Managing Directors /
Managing Director & Chief Executive Officers
- All Public Sector Banks

Dear Sir / Madam,

Calendar of Reviews

Please refer to our circular No.DBOD.BP.BC.71/21.03.038/2007-08 dated April 22, 2008 advising banks regarding Calendar of Reviews to be put up to the Board / Management Committee.

2. RBI has prescribed comprehensive ‘Calendar of Reviews’ to be deliberated by the Boards of banks and has made significant additions to the same over the years. It has been observed that Calendar of Reviews uses considerable Board time and as a result the Board may not be in a position to give focused attention to matters of strategic and financial importance. In this connection, the Committee to Review Governance of Boards of Banks in India (Chairman - Dr. P J Nayak) had also recommended that discussions in the Boards of banks need to be upgraded and greater focus should be on strategic issues.

3. Accordingly, in the first bi-monthly monetary policy statement 2015-16, it was proposed to do away with the Calendar of Reviews and instead, replace it with the seven critical themes prescribed by the Nayak Committee namely, business strategy, financial reports and their integrity, risk, compliance, customer protection, financial inclusion and human resources (as illustrated in Annex), and leave it to the banks’ Boards to determine other list of items to be deliberated and periodicity thereof.

4. Banks are advised to determine the Board agenda items and the periodicity thereof, with the approval of their Boards, such that there is adequate focus on matters of strategic and financial importance, including the seven broad themes indicated  above.

5. This supersedes our circular No.DBOD.BP.BC.71/21.03.038/2007-08 dated April 22, 2008.

Yours faithfully,

(Sudha Damodar)
Chief General Manager

Encl. As above
