No published form; the Directive requires a written in-house evaluation report without specifying its layout. Source
Validation rules
No published validation rules were found for this return. No validation rules for the Report on Board Evaluation were found on the Bank's public pages. Source
Public data
Each firm publishes its own, on its website; the regulator does not collect it into one dataset. Only a statement on the external evaluation (held every two years) must be included as a separate section of the RFI's own annual report. The annual in-house evaluation itself is submitted to BoG only and is not published, as far as the pages read show. Source
