OUR IMPACT
Our division prevents, detects and mitigates compliance, regulatory and reputational risk across the firm and helps to strengthen the firm’s culture of compliance. Compliance accomplishes these through the firm’s enterprise-wide compliance risk management program. As an independent control function and part of the firm’s second line of defense, Compliance assesses the firm’s compliance, regulatory and reputational risk; monitors for compliance with new or amended laws, rules and regulations; designs and implements controls, policies, procedures and training; conducts independent testing; investigates, surveils and monitors for compliance risks and breaches; and leads the firm’s responses to regulatory examinations, audits and inquiries. You'll be part of a team with members from a wide range of academic and professional backgrounds, such as law, accounting, sales, and trading. We look for those who possess sound judgment, curiosity, and are able to adapt to a changing regulatory landscape.
Financial Crime Compliance team (“FCC”) has primary responsibility for the execution of the firm’s enterprise-wide Anti-Money Laundering, anti-bribery, and government sanctions compliance programs and, among other things, performs enhanced due diligence and government sanctions screening, as well as surveillance and investigations designed to identify potential terrorist financing, money laundering, bribery, market abuse, or other suspicious activity. Within FCC, the Anti-Bribery & Corruption Group is responsible for implementing the firmwide anti-bribery and anti-corruption program, including assessment of the firm’s bribery/corruption risk, development and implementation of policies and procedures to prevent, detect and report bribery and corrupt payments; due diligence with respect to proposed intermediaries, and certain other business counterparties; training of relevant personnel; monitoring and surveillance of gifts and entertainment; investigations of “red flags” and internal escalations; and bringing significant issues to the attention of senior management.
