What is the Individual Accountability Framework (IAF)?

The IAF is ultimately about incentivising positive behaviours and promoting an improved culture within regulated financial services firms while strengthening the Central Banks enforcement powers to more effectively hold individuals to account. The Act builds on the existing regulatory frameworks in terms of Conduct Standards and Fitness and Probity of individuals, while introducing the new Senior Executive Accountability Regime (SEAR).

The Central Bank of Ireland new Individual Accountability Framework (IAF) started to come into effect from December 2023. The Framework, which adds to the existing Fitness & Probity Regime, makes it clearer where accountability lies and what the expectations of each of us are. It covers how we are responsible for our own behaviour, actions and decisions and for trusting and empowering our colleagues to do the same.

There are four core components of IAF:

• New Conduct Standards: with the majority of these aligned with our Code of Conduct. For senior leadership, there are additional conduct standards, generally in line with already expected behaviours.
• Fitness & Probity Enhancements: including additional due diligence checks for Control Function Role holders, as well as an annual assessment and certification process.
• Senior Executive Accountability Regime (SEAR): further defining the senior executives responsible for the core bank activities.
• Clarity and Enhancement of the existing Central Bank powers, relating to investigations and sanctions.
