Division Description: The Risk Management division at SG (RISQ) provides independent oversight of SG’s Business Lines while maintaining independent oversight through risk evaluation, monitoring and testing. The RISQ division in the US supports all the activities in the Americas Region (US, Canada, and Latin America), which is almost exclusively corporate and investment banking (GBIS) oriented. The Second Level Testing team (RISQ/CTL) is responsible for executing risk-based independent testing of controls established to manage and mitigate operational risk and regulatory risk associated with those regulations applicable to the Risk function. Reviews are completed and, where deficiencies are identified, corrective actions plans are defined and developed to remediate them using the Root Cause Taxonomy. The frequency of coverage and focus of reviews is informed by the Risk and Control Self-Assessment (RCSA) and Regulatory Risk Assessment processes and qualitative input from Senior Risk Officers.
