A strong risk culture should include but is not necessarily limited to:

• a. Tone from the top: the management body should be responsible for setting and communicating the institution ’s core values and expectations . The behaviour of its members should reflect the values. Institutions ’ management, including key function holders, should contribute to the internal communication of core values and expectations to staff. Staff should act in accordance with all applicable laws and regulations and promptly escalate observed non-compliance within or outside the institution (e.g. to the competent authority through a whistleblowing process). The management body should on an ongoing basis promote, monitor and assess the risk culture of the institution; consider the impact of the risk culture on the financial stability, risk profile and robust governance of the institution; and make changes where necessary.
• b. Accountability: relevant staff at all levels should know and understand the core values of the institution and, to the extent necessary for their role, its risk appetite and risk capacity. They should be capable of performing their roles and be aware that they will be held accountable for their actions in relation to the institution ’s risk -taking behaviour.
• c. Effective communication and challenge: a sound risk culture should promote an environment of open communication and effective challenge in which decision-making processes encourage a broad range of views, allow for testing of current practices, stimulate a constructive critical attitude among staff, and promote an environment of open and constructive engagement throughout the entire organisation.
• d. Incentives: appropriate incentives should play a key role in aligning risk-taking behaviour with the institution ’s risk profile and its long -term interest³³ .
