As a Risk Analyst Capital Markets, you play an important role in identifying, analysing and interpreting risks on the European capital markets. You translate these insights into strategic and risk-based supervision, thereby directly contributing to the supervision of market infrastructures and the parties active within them. You get energy from understanding complex risks and developments. Which risks call for further investigation or immediate action? Think, for example, of issues around cybersecurity, the impact of AI on trading strategies and transparency, digital developments in the trading chain, concentration and fragmentation of market structures, sustainability and the erosion of central price formation. In doing so, you look beyond the visible symptoms. What is the underlying cause of a risk? Which developments deserve attention, and how do we translate analyses into effective supervisory measures? With your analyses and advice, you make an important contribution to strategic decision-making within Capital Markets. In this way, you help the organisation to recognise, understand and address risks in a timely manner.
Identifying and setting the agenda for relevant trends, risks, and potentially harmful innovations in the financial markets, including the annual risk analysis of the department;
Conducting explorations and analyses, both independently and in collaboration with supervisors, internal specialists, and external experts;
Advising the management team in support of strategic choices and prioritization;
Strengthening risk-based supervision by contributing to new working methods, analytical methods, and risk models in which data, supervisory information, and policy converge.
