The Senior Analyst, Treasury Settlement is a new position, created to strengthen First Ontario's cash, settlement and collateral capability as the volume and complexity of Treasury activity continues to grow. The role is accountable for the integrity of cash and collateral once a transaction is done, confirming and controlling settlement across the fixed income, money market, repo and derivative books, managing collateral and counter party exposure, and deploying structural liquidity into the investment and HQLA portfolios.

• Provide settlement instructions, amounts and value dates for capital markets activity, and confirm receipt of funds
• Coordinate with custodians, clearing agents, brokers and counter parties to resolve discrepancies and preserve operational integrity

• Manage collateral and margin across the repo and derivative books - collateral selection and substitution, CSA margin calls, eligibility and haircut monitoring, and daily collateral position reporting
• Monitor counter party exposure, settlement risk and credit limit utilization daily against Board and ALCO limits, including concentration by counter party, rating band and instrument type
• Escalate limit breaches and near‑breaches through the Manager, Capital Markets with documented remediation, and…
