Job Title: Market and Valuation Risk Management – Valuations Senior Specialist - AVP
Corporate Title: Assistant Vice President
The Market and Valuation Risk Management (MVRM) group is a 2nd line of defence (2LOD) control under the Bank’s Chief Risk Office. MVRM globally identifies, assesses and manages the market risks, and is responsible for independent valuation of balance sheet positions, predominantly across the Corporate & Investment Bank (CIB).
Market Conformity Control (MCC), and Exotic Trade Review (ETR) are two key 2LOD control teams under MVRM’s Valuation Control unit. MCC performs independent validation that transactions conform to prevailing market levels at time of execution using pre-determined methodologies. ETR, on the other hand, checks and validates economic terms of dually-booked exotic trades match with executed legal documents agreed with the Bank’s clients.
Aside from MCC and ETR teams, the Technical Valuations (Tech Vals) team is a part of MVRM’s Valuation Control unit, drives the change, innovation and AI strategy for two key 2LOD control teams: (1) Market Conformity Control (MCC) which independently validates that transactions adhere to prevailing market levels at the time of execution, using established methodologies, and (2) Exotic Trade Review (ETR) which checks and validates that the economic terms of complex, “exotic” trades match the executed legal documents agreed upon with clients.
Tech Vals ensures these control functions remain cost-effective, robust, and adaptable to future opportunities and challenges through technology and innovation.
