Your Core Responsibilities:
  • Provide legal advice across the US and London / EUR markets across a wide array of asset classes and topics, including prime brokerage arrangements, give-up agreements, securities lending, netting and collateral, capital and liquidity requirements, custody and clearing relationships, and reporting
  • Lead negotiations across all prime brokerage and OTC derivatives documentation including ISDA Master Agreements, Credit Support Annexes, and securities lending and repurchase documentation, as well as banking deposit agreements, account control agreements, letters of credit agreements, etc.
  • Advise on regulatory compliance and implementation of key regulatory projects such as transaction reporting, clearing, and margin requirements, on cash equities, fixed income, options, futures, and derivatives
  • Collaborate with Risk, Treasury, and business support, helping internal teams understand regulatory requirements and implementation impacts
