    • Advise on hedge structuring, treasury operations, and fair value measurements
    • Advise on credit risk assessment, reasonableness of credit staging, and calculation of expected credit losses
    • Support in aligning treasury reporting with accounting standards
    • Review and assist in the preparation of various prudential reporting requirements in line with regulatory standards.
    • Coordinate with internal teams and external auditors to validate regulatory submissions
  • Corporate governance, controls, and information technology
    • Strengthen internal controls over financial reporting and regulatory reporting
    • Assist in audit readiness and remediation of control deficiencies
    • Leverage data analytics to improve reporting accuracy and insights
