We support new fund launches, acquisitions, business initiatives, and strategic technology transformations to ensure regulatory compliance is embedded into the firm's operating model.

Leveraging deep expertise across asset classes, products, data, and risk management, the team establishes regulatory reporting policies, governs data and reporting standards, oversees external reporting vendors, and performs final review and submission of regulatory filings. Our work spans complex regulatory calculations, including derivatives exposure, counterparty risk, liquidity, leverage, and portfolio risk metrics.

  • Drive the preparation, review, and submission of regulatory filings to global regulators while identifying opportunities to improve efficiency, controls, and scalability.
  • Partner with internal stakeholders and external vendors to oversee data sourcing, quality, and production of regulatory reports.
  • Serve as a subject matter expert for assigned regulations, business areas, and datasets, building strong relationships with portfolio managers, COOs, Legal, Compliance, Risk, Operations, and Engineering.
  • Lead the investigation and resolution of data quality issues, driving remediation at source and enhancing data governance practices.
  • Support the design, testing, and implementation of strategic technology solutions and reporting infrastructure.
  • Identify opportunities to streamline regulatory reporting processes through self-service solutions and the effective use of artificial intelligence.
  • Partner with portfolio managers, quantitative strategists, and engineering teams to implement complex reporting methodologies and portfolio risk calculations.
  • Analyze new and evolving regulatory requirements, provide recommendations on regulatory interpretations and policy positions, and support implementation across the organization.
  • Communicate effectively with senior management, influence stakeholders, build consensus, escalate key risks, and drive strategic initiatives across businesses and divisions.
