• Financials & Reporting: responsible for facilitating the production of the firm’s financials and a wide range of reporting functions

• Non-Financial Risk & Controls: responsible for non-financial risk and control processes

• Enterprise Platforms: responsible for platforms and applications that support critical operational processes across The Core such as payments, people processes, and procurement

• Shared Services: responsible for driving the adoption of consistent engineering strategy, including data platforms, cloud, and AI enablement, as well as the management of technology risk
