• Translate FX market structure, capital, margin and regulatory developments into differentiated client solutions and clear commercial priorities.
• Work closely with Risk, Technology, Operations, Delivery, Legal, Regulatory, Marketing and other LSEG businesses to deliver robust, scalable solutions.
