What does compliance mean and how is it handled at the Versicherungskammer Bayern?
The companies in the Versicherungskammer Bayern are reliable, honest and fair partners. This is one of the foundations of our success. Ensuring compliance and avoiding and minimizing associated risks is therefore particularly important and contributes to the value of the Group.
Compliance in the Versicherungskammer Bayern means compliance with all laws and regulations as well as all regulatory requirements and voluntary commitments with an external impact.
Proactively avoiding risks and maintaining constant awareness of legal risks is just one goal of compliance. In addition, risk control, early warning, monitoring and advisory functions are among the core tasks of compliance. This legal awareness protects the company from economic damage.
For this purpose, the Versicherungskammer Bayern has created a compliance management system (CMS), principles of conduct and internal regulations that apply equally to all employees and managers. These support the long-term development of a natural compliance culture.
Who is the contact person for compliance?
The central contact person for the topic of compliance is the Central Compliance Function of the Versicherungskammer Bayern.
