YOUR Impact:
We conduct our business in increasingly complex markets. Our people must continually find new ways to provide access to capital, manage risk and provide investment opportunities for our clients to enable them to realize their goals.

Controllers Strats is a multidisciplinary group of quantitative experts within the Controllers Division, focusing on independent price verification, regulatory capital measurement, revenue analysis and modelling. The group is primarily responsible for building advanced quantitative models and analytical tools for valuation risk and regulatory capital pertaining to the three areas mentioned.
