• Play a pivotal role during regulatory examinations by preparing essential materials, addressing inquiries, and leading presentations.
• Dive into quarterly reports from various U.S. operations, crafting a consolidated risk report that will be shared in risk committee meetings.
• Oversee the entire lifecycle of issue management to ensure prompt resolutions.
• Stay ahead of the curve by monitoring regulatory changes and conducting relevant training sessions for business leaders.
• Collaborate with other Risk Management teams to identify emerging risks, maximizing visibility and preparedness.
