English to Russian Bus/Financial Finance (general)

Помогите разобраться что означает слово "policy" в данном контексте
This Delegation of Authority policy is established to define the limits of authority designated to specified positions of responsibility within Russkiy Slaviansky Bank (the “Bank”) and to establish the types and maximum amount of obligations that may be approved by individuals. The approval of commitments and transactions outlined in this policy must always be made by the parties that have been designated the responsibility for final approval.
All employees should be aware that conduct that violates the policy set forth is always considered outside the scope of their employment. Violating the policy could significantly damage the Bank and expose it to unintended legal and commercial liabilities. In addition, individuals who violate these policies are subject to appropriate disciplinary action by the Bank, including possible termination of employment.
Мне так кажется что это что-то вроде "свод правил, внутренние правила банка", поправьте меня ежели я не прав. Заранее благодарю всех отвечающих.
