5. The Central Bank of Ireland The 2012 Central Bank of Ireland’s ‘Lessons Learned’ document stated that there were many weaknesses in the entire secured lending valuations processes. It states (among several findings) that: “…[there was a] lack of appreciation of the significance of the valuation document as independent evidence of risk mitigation effectiveness. Many bankers did not fully regard the valuation report as a key document underpinning the basis on which they were acquiring the risk”. The Central Bank of Ireland Valuation Processes in the Banking Crisis – Lessons Learned – Guiding the Future (Final 18 December 2012) (IPAV contributed to this report)

6. The Central Bank of Ireland “Examples of valuation standards consistent with the principle rules of International Valuation Standards and considered to be appropriate practice include; the Royal Institution of Chartered Surveyors (RICS) “Red Book”, the European Group of Valuers Associations (TEGoVA) “European Valuation Standards Blue Book”, and The International Valuation Standards Council’s “International Valuation Standards White Book”.
