Define, review and backtest liquidity and safeguarding buffers using historical data, forward-looking volumes and credible stress scenarios.

Evaluate the financial and prudential implications of payment systems like Pix, SPI, STR in Brazil, SPEI in Mexico among other LatAm payment systems, FX and settlement arrangements, including cut-offs, prefunding, trapped liquidity and operational concentration.

Challenge Finance, Treasury, PayOps, Banking, Product and Engineering on financial assumptions, control design, data quality, reconciliation and remediation plans. Convert Financial Risk analysis into practical recommendations such as limits, launch conditions, liquidity controls, capital actions, counterparty diversification and contingency arrangements.

Prepare clear recommendations and escalation materials for the Brazilian CRO and CFO, local Risk Committee, Board and other governance forums. Support Compliance and senior management in technical prudential engagements with Regulators. Monitor regulatory developments affecting capital, liquidity, safeguarding, FX, concentration and prudential reporting, assessing their quantitative and operational impact.
