The Rates In-Business Risk (IBR) Team

The Rates In-Business Risk (IBR) team works with Global Rates trading teams in all major Markets locations to monitor, analyze, and mitigate market and credit risks arising from the live risk portfolio of the business. The team also takes a leading role in capital reg implementation programs on behalf of Global Rates Front Office. In addition, the team is heavily involved in capital optimization initiatives that directly impact the return on capital for Global Rates. The primary mission of the team is to support the Front Office trading teams to manage their material risks and operate in a capital-efficient manner.

This role is for a VP-level member of the Rates IBR Team, who will be primarily involved in SME work for Basel 3 Endgame / Fundamental Review of the Trading Book (FRTB) implementation and analytics. In addition, the individual will be involved in multiple analytical projects and workstreams; responding to new mandatory regulatory rulemaking and important supervisory requirements; building and maintaining the analytical thought process and infrastructure needed for a robust risk monitoring process and market risk capitalization as part of Front Office.

Responsibilities

Responsibilities and priorities will reflect needs of the specific workstreams and will evolve over time, however the following are some of the specific activities expected of this role:

  • Analysis of gaps and enhancements in the delivery of FRTB SA and IMA implementation for Global Rates
  • Project management of stakeholder dependencies with key partner teams inside Markets
  • Analysis of material drivers of market risk capital under B3E / FRTB and construction of analytical tools for market risk exposures and capital, highlighting key areas of capital optimization under FRTB SA and IMA
  • Devising capital optimization strategies and solutions under the FRTB regime
  • Active participation in reg-facing deliverables for the Front Office, as part of FRTB readiness reviews
  • Contributing to the successful delivery of market risk projects (current Basel 2.5 regime) in line with overall Rates IBR book of work
  • Analysis and streamlining of the intraday risk calculation and reporting by the team’s Technology partners
  • Effective communication with key stakeholders – both internal and external to the Global Rates business
  • Subject matter expertise for internal queries relating to market risk issues and ad-hoc analytical projects

Reasons to use Rodeo

I’m in my final year doing Economics and I don’t know whether to apply for grad schemes now or do a masters first. What do you think?

Honest answer — it depends on where you want to end up. A lot of top grad schemes (Big 4, civil service, banking) don’t need a masters. Let’s look at the ones you’d be competitive for now, and we can decide if a masters actually adds anything.

Also worth knowing: most autumn 2026 applications are open now. Timing matters more than you think.

Start with a chat, not a search bar

Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
