Responsibilities

The RISQ Division's mission is to contribute to the sustainable and predictable growth of the SG Group by overseeing and independently challenging the objectives and strategies of the Business Lines. RISQ’s mission is to independently analyze, challenge, opine and monitor on the risk-taking activities of the Business Lines in order to get to the best possible outcome for the Bank. The RISQ division in the US supports all the activities in the Americas Region (US, Canada and Latin America), which is almost exclusively SGCIB-oriented.

Within the RISQ Division, the Operational Risk (“RISQ/AME/NFR”) department has the primary responsibility as the Second Line of Defense (“2LOD”) for developing, enforcing and overseeing the Operational Risk Framework based on SG Group, Regulator and peer best practices. The mission is to manage the operational risks and permanent control frameworks to which SG’s Americas operations (SG AMER) are exposed.

Key principles include:

Clarifying the roles and accountabilities for Operational Risk specific programs cascaded from the US Exco Management to the First Line of Defense (“1LOD”), individual employees and Risk Management teams
Ensuring regulatory requirements are met while providing maximum business value and efficiency
Establishing and providing independent operational risk oversight of 1LOD owned operational risk responsibilities
Providing guidance and advice to the lines of business on a day-to-day basis to pre-emptively identify, manage and mitigate operational risk throughout SG AMER
Evaluating and escalating critical and emerging risks across the firm and to the Group level organization, and ensure proper controls are implemented
Aggregating risks and information across SG AMER; ensuring escalation of non-compliance of risk limits and standards through SG AMER governance and reporting structure

Fraud Risk Management within RISQ/NFR/AMER is the process of assessing fraud risks within the organization and then identifying potential and inherent fraud risks and developing a program that works to detect and prevent suspected fraud, both internal and external to the business. The utilization of Key Risk Indicators is essential to monitor fraud risk and help identify potential fraud before it occurs or a least in the early stages.

As a member of Fraud Risk, the VIE will be expected to support the Fraud Risk Program:

Understand the fraud related incidents and potential external or internal impact to the business
Know the business and identify where fraud vulnerabilities exist
Challenge the various groups on their fraud risk management practices
Ensure fraud risk is managed in an international proactive manner
Understand, maintain, and develop the Fraud Monitoring Framework from an IT point of view
Partner with associated groups regarding initiatives that can impact fraud risk management

Day to day responsibilities include but not limited to:

Support the Fraud Risk Program as well as other initiatives within Operational Risk
Participate in projects particularly focused on the automation enhancements of fraud risk management reporting and metric production by working with IT (develop red flag reports, dashboards, and management reports)
Maintain the current fraud monitoring framework
Develop new indicators to detect fraudulent / suspicious activity
Review external events and identify ways to spread fraud awareness throughout the organization
Collaborate with our colleagues in the other regions (UK, Paris, Asia)
Review key risk indicators and perform investigations
