Product review: Review new and existing products, features, and customer journeys to assess regulatory impact, identify compliance risks, and provide guidance on required controls, disclosures, and approvals prior to launch or enhancement.
Licence application: Supporting regulatory licensing and approval processes, including assisting with the preparation and submission of licence applications, completing regulatory application forms, coordinating inputs from relevant teams, and reviewing information provided to regulators to ensure accuracy, completeness, and consistency.
Policy and procedure management: Draft, review, and update compliance policies, SOPs, and control frameworks; ensure they remain aligned with regulatory expectations.
