About the role
Why This Role Is Important To Us: Fund Transfer is a key function performed across State Street, exposing the enterprise to significant risk due to the nature of the transactional environment of the organization. Significant transformation initiatives, including the company’s digital transformation and expanding business capabilities (which leverage industry best practices and advanced technologies such as cloud, artificial intelligence, and robotics process automation) further enhance the need for this role, which aims to drive consistency across the enterprise. Funds Transfer activity relates to the movement of funds (cash and securities) on behalf of clients to a beneficiary, usually outside of the Bank, inclusive of all steps from transaction initiation (whether originating internally or externally) to payment processing (monetary instructions) through the Banking system. It also includes activities that facilitate the subsequent movement of funds (collectively known as non-monetary instructions such as the establishment or modification of standing instructions, customer access to payment applications, applications used in the funds transfer life cycle and FTTOP documentation). Governing that process is key.
