Description
Ready to set global standards for wholesale problem exposure oversight?
This is a senior opportunity within Corporate & Institutional Banking (CIB) to own HSBC’s global problem exposure management and deterioration oversight framework.
You’ll design and continuously develop the wholesale Watch, Worry and Monitor (WWM) framework, setting minimum standards, management information and effectiveness assessment across regions and businesses.
The role turns macroeconomic, sector, portfolio and single-name insights into decisive portfolio actions that support sustainable growth, risk-adjusted returns, capital efficiency and regulatory resilience.
You’ll also shape client risk-profiling and the Early Warning Indicator (EWI) platform to strengthen timely identification of emerging and deteriorating risk.
Success means earlier and more consistent escalation, clearer decisions with accountable actions and forward-looking insight that improves portfolio transparency and capital deployment.
