Abstract: Abstract This Chapter 30 of the Stage 2 Key Code and Advanced Handbook for the governance of Australian major banks examines the NAB Self-Assessment 2018, Westpac Review Team 2018 and Westpac Reassessment on governance, accountability and culture. This begins with the NAB Self-Assessment 2018 and Westpac Review Team 2018 on the role of the board and senior management including the operation of the board and its committees. There is focus on NAB’s reporting to the board, customer impact and outcomes, second line risk reporting, reporting from third line internal audit, non-financial risk reporting, operational and technology risk, compliance and regulatory matters and NAB’s further variables for non-financial risk reporting. We then switch to the Westpac Review Team 2018 on investment allocations. There follows the NAB board challenge and closure of issues, remuneration and consequence management and the NAB Self-Assessment on senior leadership oversight including Executive Risk Committees, ELT Risk Committees, Customer Experience Board (CXB), Group Risk Return Management Committee (GRRMC), Value Chain Risk Management Committees and the Technology and Operations Risk Management Committee. This section then turns to the NAB operation of the Executive Leadership Team (ELT) and the Group Risk Return Management Committee (GRRMC). The examination then moves to Westpac’s functioning of the Executive Team and Westpac RISKCO including enhancing RISKCO reporting and enhancing Executive Team functions. The Westpac examination concludes with the Westpac Reassessment’s board and executive oversight of non-financial risk including the Westpac board and RISKCO. Chapter 30 concludes with the NAB Self-Assessment of accountability including clarity of accountability, effectiveness of accountability, accountabilities for resolving ‘complex’ issues and NAB accountabilities in performance and remuneration.
