YOUR IMPACT
Private Bank Lending requires a Private Bank Capital Markets Team Lead to head up a team which will be responsible to manage loans secured by liquid financial collateral and trading activity to GS Private Wealth Management (PWM) clients in EMEA and Asia. In this capacity, the PBCM professional assesses, underwrites, documents, and monitors the risks incurred in loan and derivative transactions. The process includes a thorough analysis of the borrower’s financial condition, deep assessment of the collateral securing the loan, identification of risks and mitigants, among other items.
The PBCM professional also ensures that the underwriting standards approved by the bank are adhered to in the loan approval process, with exceptions appropriately mitigated and documented. In addition, the PBCM professional participates in various business-related initiatives, such as new product development and systems/operational enhancements. This is a client facing role that requires a sound risk mindset.
