Capital Reporting and Stress Testing is responsible for the calculation and reporting of the Bank's capital position as well as all prudential returns to the PRA and Bank of England covering capital, large exposures and leverage, as well as various internal MI packs (ALCO, Treasury & Capital Management (TCM)/GM meetings and inputs into various Board papers). Governance of all local reporting requirements is exercised via the quarterly RegGov forum.

Budgeting, forecasting and stress testing encompasses the monitoring and management of capital supply and demand over the planning horizon, and parameterising and running periodic stress tests to assess the firm's capital position under severe but plausible market scenarios.

The team also takes ownership of key annual documents including ICAAP, RRP and Solvent Exit Analysis, and manages the Contingency Escalation frameworks, with input into the Business Contingency Management team for that framework.

Liquidity and Head Office Reporting is responsible for the calculation and reporting of the Bank's liquidity position as well as all prudential returns to the PRA and Bank of England covering, liquidity, NSFR and asset encumbrance as well as various internal MI packs (ALCO, TCM/GM meetings and inputs into various Board papers).

TCM Control and Change assumes ownership of all capital and liquidity reporting systems with responsibility for RTB and CTB change management of these systems. This includes management and prioritisation of IT resource and release cycles to deliver regulatory driven system changes and accommodate new business activities (i.e. NPSTAC support).

TCM Policy and Business Liaison is responsible for liquidity and capital related regulatory policy adherence for the Group across all pillars, including identifying regulatory changes concerning liquidity and capital, ensuring a strong link between policy and practice, and supporting the business on capital and liquidity optimisation and business initiatives (at times undertaking cross-Finance co-ordination).

The team takes the project management lead in relation to the issuance and redemption of capital instruments, including preparation of PRA approval and notification documentation.

The function represents Capital Management and Reg Reporting in NPSTAC discussions, advising on the capital and liquidity impacts of new trade types or specific structures and subsequently working with the other teams that make up Capital Management and Reg Reporting to ensure that the structure is understood and any necessary system enhancements are implemented. It is also responsible for representation of the firm at industry forums.
