Research Product Governance
Details of the division and team
Deutsche Bank Research publishes a wide range of notes including on equities, economics, currencies, credit, rates, strategy, and a variety of other investment products and thematic topics. Deutsche Bank's Supervisory Analyst team reviews these notes and ensures compliance with regulatory and internal DB policy requirements, as well as facilitates the publication and clearance of these notes.
The individual will sit within Research in the globally integrated Business Controls & Supervisory Analyst team. This role involves review of written research as set out in FINRA rules (especially Rule 2210) regarding written communication with the public.

Additionally, the role will involve overseeing product governance of the global Research product along with product transformation to introduce Artificial Intelligence in the product governance process.
