The role

What you'll do
- Participate in the review of new investment product and service proposals before their approval.
- Help ensure that adequate mechanisms exist to manage the fiduciary risk associated with the aforementioned activities.
- Ensure that these mechanisms function correctly on a day-to-day basis.
- Prepare and share information regarding fiduciary risk in the Global Risk Committee.
- Work continuously with business areas to learn about new initiatives or important changes in investment products and services.
