As a general observation, given the nature of the operations and the jurisdictions in which they are operating, the risks of corruption in the London and New York offices are considered generally to be inherently no more, and no less, than associated with like activities in Head Office.
That said, risks of any operation can increase with remoteness and, for this reason, there is, on a daily basis, close monitoring from Head Office of all transactions undertaken in London and New York. Extensive, on-the-ground auditing of these operations occurs every year. As to the integrity framework generally, the Bank has a Code of Conduct, which governs all the staff.
