The Team

The Business Banking Central Controls Office (CCO) focus is on driving simpler and better risk and regulatory outcomes through provision of transparency, consistency and insight to our Business Banking divisions. We do this through robust Governance practices, the application of Frameworks and Policy in a consistent manner across BB and via centres of excellence where specialised resources are required for targeted risk focus areas.

The Controls Excellence function in the BB CCO is responsible for supporting all Lines of Business in improving the strength of our control environment, through automation and rigorous testing.  The Controls Assurance team is responsible for ensuring that we have a current and accurate view of the health of our control environment by performing control testing on behalf of the business.
