Moreover, to reinforce its engagement to sustainability and sustainable development, CCB Brasil made public engagement to FEBRABAN, through its Banking Self-Regulation system.
The Self-Regulation System is governed by its Code of Conduct and Ethics, and by guidelines, resolutions and formal rules publicly established by the Febraban Board.
It´s important to point out that the Self-Regulation standards do not overlap the current legislation, but rather harmonize with them, detailing the procedures to be adopted so that there is full compliance with the established regulations.
Self-regulation has three normative axes, as shown below, where Financial Institutions can voluntarily adhere to at least one of these axes.
• Relationship with the Consumer: regulations that consolidate guidelines and procedures for the good practices of financial institutions with their consumers;
• Prevention of Illicits: currently related to SARB Regulations 011/2013 and 021/2019, this normative axis consolidates the best national and international practices to prevent and combat money laundering and financing of terrorism and corruption;
• Social and Environmental Responsibility: regulations that consolidate fundamental guidelines and procedures for the social and environmental practices of the Signatories in business and in the relationship with stakeholders.
