37. As a general principle, the chair of the management body should be a non-executive member. …

As a general principle, the chair of the management body should be a non-executive member. Where the chair is permitted to assume executive duties, the institution should have measures in place to mitigate any adverse impact on the institution ’s checks and balances (e.g. by designating a lead board member or a senior independent board member, or by having a larger number of non-executive members within the management body in its supervisory function). In particular, in accordance with Article 88(1)(e) of Directive 2013/36/EU, the chair of the management body in its supervisory function of an institution must not exercise simultaneously the functions of a CEO within the same institution, unless justified by the institution and authorised by competent authorities.
