We’re building a relationship-oriented bank for the modern world. Compliance & Global Regulatory Affairs (Compliance & GRA) helps our bank develop and execute a strong, proactive regulatory compliance and regulatory affairs strategy while effectively managing regulatory risk.
Within
Compliance & GRA, the Compliance and EAML Examinations Program (CEEP) is a centre of excellence made up of multi-skilled examination teams, including the Wealth Compliance Examinations team. This team provides independent oversight of compliance with the laws and regulations that apply to CIBC's Investment Fund Manager, Portfolio Manager, Investment Dealer, and Mutual Fund Dealer businesses, while also monitoring, advising on, and reporting adherence to regulatory and business requirements, CIBC policies, best practices, and standards of business ethics and conduct.
