BOARD COMMITTEES
In carrying out its functions, the Board is supported by the regulatory, governance and industry development committees which operate within their respective defined terms of reference, thus enabling the Board to perform its fiduciary duties in a more efficient and focused manner.
Each Board member sits on various Board Committees. Within FIMM, there are a total of six (6) Board Committees and one (1) Sub-Committee.
Regulatory
Appeal Committee (AC)
The AC hears and decides on appeals made by persons aggrieved by the decisions of the DC.
Disciplinary Committee (DC)
The DC acts as a tribunal to conduct hearings and decide on appropriate disciplinary sanctions against FIMM’s registered persons for misconducts and/or non-compliances of FIMM’s Rules.
Regulatory Committee (RC)
As FIMM’s regulatory guardian, the RC strives to ensure that FIMM has in place proper rule-making procedures, adequate rules to discharge its regulatory functions, as well as a robust supervisory and surveillance programme.
