-Job description

**Some careers have more impact than others.**
If you’re looking for a career where you can make a real impression, join HSBC and discover how valued you’ll be. Whether you want a career that could take you to the top, or simply take you in an exciting new direction, HSBC offers opportunities, support and rewards that will take you further.

As part of the Global Risk and Compliance function, Regulatory Compliance facilitates adherence to applicable regulations and standards by setting the policies which cover HSBC’s regulatory requirements and mitigate conduct and reputational risk issues. The team strives to remain ahead of the regulatory change agenda and ensures the business understands the implications and is prepared for change. It monitors how the Global Businesses and Functions manage their responsibilities with regard to complying with the regulations and helps resolve compliance deficiencies. They also assist to manage and maintain positive and constructive regulatory relationships in an open, cooperative and timely manner.

We are currently seeking an ambitious individual to join our Regulatory Compliance team, working together with colleagues and stakeholders to manage the regulatory requirements and relationship with regulators.

The 2nd LOD consists of 'Risk Stewards' who are independent of the commercial risk-taking activities undertaken by the First LOD.

The RC function is a Risk Steward for a number of non-financial risks in accordance with HSBC Group’s Enterprise Risk Management Framework (ERMF).

Regulatory Affairs is a sub-function of RC and is focused on providing an enterprise-wide service to other risk areas of the bank. Regulatory Affairs roles aim to ensure that there are “no surprises” in relation to dealings with regulators or regulatory developments affecting the Bank.

The role is a key risk management role that has a broad remit and responsibilities, which include and are not limited to:

- **Regulatory Engagement**: delivering proactive and more consistent management and oversight of regulatory relationships in the UAE.
- **Regulatory Development**: identification, dissemination and oversight of upcoming and in train material regulatory developments, supporting the UAE to address regulatory change.

**Duties & Responsibilities**:
**Regulatory Engagement**:

- Act as an SME in respect of the RC supported regulatory engagement, ensuring that UAE maintains full oversight of all relevant engagement with all UAE regulators.
- Support management of the relationship and engagement with the UAE Regulators (e.g. UAE Central Bank, UAE Securities and Commodities Authority and the ADGM Financial Services Regulatory Authority) on all matters relevant to the country.
- Ensure that the respective Regulators’ agendas and requirements are understood, communicated and met, with the intention of there being “no surprises” in HBME UAE’s engagement.
- Support relevant senior management in material engagement with the UAE Regulators; including preparation of Briefing Notes and attendance at meetings as and when required.
- Support engagements on RC related matters with Regulators, working with relevant RC colleagues, Global Businesses, Global Functions and DBS, as required.
- Monitor regulatory engagement trends for regulators and provide updates, reporting and guidance as appropriate / required.
- Supports HSBC strategy in line with designated responsibilities.

**Regulatory Development**
- Support delivery of the strategic direction of the Regulatory Affairs where appropriate acting as the sponsor for delivery of strategic projects.
- Support the maintenance of the portfolio of regulatory development and change themes, to be agreed as the demand requires.
- Ensure appropriate horizon scanning and effective hand-off to the Risk Stewards to enable them to provide 2nd LoD oversight of implementation of regulatory change.
- Ensure effective communication of the range of regional & country themes and build effective external networks.
- Proactively engage with and support consultation responses.
- Support lobbying and wider industry discussion and similar work in relation to material regulatory developments, working collaboratively with other relevant internal stakeholders at country, Region and other leve
