Ensure management of U.S. problem credits is consistent with applicable Federal Reserve and other U.S. banking supervisory expectations, including requirements relating to asset quality, classification of credits, credit-risk review, criticized assets and allowance for credit losses. Maintain robust documentation supporting credit classifications, restructuring decisions, valuations, recovery assumptions and allowance conclusions. Prepare and present restructuring strategies, credit recommendations and approval requests to senior management and relevant credit committees, articulating key risks, alternatives, expected recoveries, downside scenarios and recommended actions. Coordinate closely with Front Office, Credit Risk, Legal, Finance, Loan Operations and other stakeholders to ensure restructuring transactions are appropriately approved, documented, implemented and monitored. Support portfolio-level management of criticized and non-performing exposures, identifying emerging risks, concentrations and recurring themes and providing clear reporting and escalation to senior management.
