ISO 37301:2021 5.1.3: Compliance governance

The governing body together with top management shall make sure three principles are in effect: the compliance function can go directly to the governing body (a direct reporting line, regular reports and attendance at its meetings); the compliance function is independent (its operation free from undue interference or pressure); and the compliance function has appropriate authority and competence.
