  • Assist in evaluating and optimizing existing operational methods and workflows to increase efficiency and effectiveness.
  • Review and assess changes to regulatory capital-related business requirements, risk capital models, and corresponding solution documents, performing User Acceptance Testing on implementation and RWA impact analysis.
  • Work with other teams in Risk such as Stress Testing and Portfolio Management to perform capital impact analysis under stressed scenarios.
  • Perform peer capital analysis, including understanding of differences in portfolio characteristics.


Capital Related Projects

  • Lead and execute projects on RWA refinement and optimization as needed, identifying the correct and optimal capital treatment of lending products by referencing relevant regulatory guidelines.
  • Discuss analysis with stakeholders and obtain concurrence from approvers, driving the final implementation by working with partners across the bank.


Regulatory Support

  • Stay up-to-date with Basel regulations as well as internal regulatory processes to assist in implementing new regulations.
  • Participate in ongoing OSFI quantitative impact studies and provide analytical support to Risk and Finance partners.
  • Interpret regulatory capital policies and identify key regulatory initiatives to advise Lines of Business and capital reporting functions on appropriate regulatory interpretations.


Salary Information
