Bank of Jamaica (BOJ): regulatory returns

The Bank of Jamaica is Jamaica's central bank. It licenses and supervises deposit-taking institutions (commercial banks, building societies and merchant banks) under the Banking Services Act, combining risk-focused on-site examinations with ongoing off-site monitoring through prudential reporting.

What this page covers

5 returns, all from the Bank's prudential reporting requirement regime for deposit-taking institutions (commercial banks, building societies, merchant banks), as set out on its Supervisory Guidance Notes & Reporting Requirements page: Monthly Balance Sheet, Loans and Deposits Flow, Maturity Profile and Repricing Gap, Payments and a Quarterly return. The page names only these five by their submission due dates; it does not give template codes, legal citations or a breakdown by sub-schedule, and no separate returns table was found for capital adequacy, liquidity coverage or AML/CFT reporting (the page lists AML/CFT Guidance Notes and a Liquidity Coverage Ratio Standard of Sound Practice as guidance documents, not as a return with its own deadline). Credit unions, which the Bank of Jamaica also has some oversight of, and the Financial Services Commission's own non-bank population, are out of scope. Source

Plain name first, the BOJ's code in brackets. Each return has its own page: what it is for, who files it, the deadline, the templates, the validation rules, the documents and the sources.

Reuse terms for the BOJ's documents

Bank of Jamaica: Copyright notice (Disclaimer page), checked 13 November 2026. In the BOJ's words:

Information may [...] be downloaded, displayed or printed for personal or non-commercial use or extracted and reproduced with due acknowledgement of its source. [...] persons [...] making private or commercial use [...] are expected to adhere to the terms [...] asserted by the copyright holder.
Can others share copies?
Allowed with conditions.
Conditions
Credit: acknowledge the Bank of Jamaica as the source. The clause separates simple downloading/printing (personal or non-commercial only) from extracting and reproducing the information, which it allows with acknowledgement of source, including for private or commercial use. The page also warns that some site content is third-party material subject to its own copyright, so only the Bank's own reporting pages are used here, not third-party content on the same site. No logo is used.
What the library does
Links each document on the regulator's own site, with its size and SHA-256 fingerprint so a change can be spotted. Documents are never hosted on line4.ai.

Notice the BOJ's terms ask for: Source: Bank of Jamaica, https://boj.org.jm. The plain-English summaries are Line4's own; the Bank of Jamaica does not endorse this library.

What could not be verified

Said plainly, so nobody relies on a fact the sources do not give.

  • The Supervisory Guidance Notes & Reporting Requirements page did not return byte-identical content on a same-day recheck (same size, different SHA-256), so no fingerprint is recorded for it; this looks like a dynamic element in the page's markup, not a changed fact.
  • The page names each return by its submission due date only; no template codes, no legal basis (Act or regulation section) and no file format are stated for any of the five returns.
  • No capital adequacy, liquidity coverage ratio or AML/CFT return with its own code and deadline was found; the page lists a Liquidity Coverage Ratio Standard of Sound Practice and AML/CFT Guidance Notes among 'Standards of Best Practice', which are guidance documents, not returns with a filing deadline, so neither is recorded here as a return.
  • The Bank's Statistics pages publish Commercial Banks', Building Societies' and Merchant Banks' data, but none of the pages read names this prudential-returns regime as its source, so no published-data entry is recorded for these returns.
  • The electronic submission application is described only as 'a browser based application'; it is not named on the page read.
