COK Sodality is served by three (3) statutory committees namely the Board, the Credit Committee and the Supervisory Committee. These committees consist of volunteers who are first recommended by a nominating committee based on their areas of expertise, experience and knowledge or nominated by members during the Annual General Meeting (AGM). All nominees are then presented to the membership and successful candidates elected to serve on each committee.
In addition to the three statutory committees, volunteers are nominated to serve on various non-statutory committees related to different aspects of the credit union. Some of these are the Education Committee, Financial & Planning Committee, Business Process Improvements Committee, Asset Liability Management Committee (ALCO), Marketing Committee and Space Committee.
Supervisory Committee
The Supervisory Committee is considered the "watchdog" of the credit union and has the responsibility for internal audit of the credit union's records and systems, ensuring the security of assets and dealing with members' complaints. The Supervisory Committee is elected by the membership at Annual General Meetings and is required to report to the Board of Directors on a monthly basis and to the members at each Annual General Meeting.
The Credit Committee

The committee operates within the framework of the law, the credit union rules and the loan policy developed by the Board of Directors. The Credit Committee is elected by the membership at Annual General Meetings and is required to report to the Board of Directors on a monthly basis and to the members at each Annual General Meeting.
