Valuation Solution Design and Implementation

• Ensure alignment between proposed financial improvements and existing reporting structures by developing a thorough understanding of requirements on both sides.
• For solutions proposed by initiative teams, conduct / coordinate feasibility studies and impact assessments to validate solutions financially and operationally.
• Provide and execute detailed implementation plans to the reporting teams; support the transition of prototypes into live reporting systems.
• Ensure all proposed and implemented solutions comply with relevant financial regulations and internal valuation standards.

Continuous Development and Improvement
• Drive initiatives to meaningfully shorten valuation processes through developing a thorough understanding of the current processes and their shortcomings, and design and implement solutions (e.g. simplify and shorten sub-processes, develop simplified methods) that are both operationally feasible and audit friendly. This would likely involve working with multiple teams across Group / Segment / local BU levels and influence their way of working.
• Cooperate with development teams worldwide to support development of reporting tools e.g. local adoption of globally consistent reporting software and processes, enhancements to stochastic reserve calculators, reinsurance treaty calculators, etc.
• Enhance insights drawn from financial analysis by developing conceptual frameworks and work tools that aid executives and the reporting teams to improve the understanding of reported financials, and to improve future financial forecasts.
