RISK DIVISION (RISQ)

Risk Management in the UK is organised along a three lines of defence model with well-defined and segregated responsibilities aligned with the Group framework as well as applicable local regulatory requirements and guidance. RISQ is part of the 2nd line of defence and aims to independently analyse, challenge, opine on and monitor the risk-taking activities of the Business Lines thereby enabling effective execution of the Bank’s strategy in line with its risk appetite.

Within the RISQ Department, the role of RISQ/RMA/HPC provides LOD2 counterparty risk management for hedge funds, mutual funds, proprietary trading groups (PTG) and CCP counterparties. In particular, it performs risk assessment (including due diligence), mitigation, approval, and monitoring processes for the core businesses at SG Group that transact with, clear for, or take collateral consisting of, hedge funds.
