About the role
As Vice President, you will serve as LMI's authority on how investments behave inside an insurance balance sheet. You will work with investment teams to propose structuring guidance, and work with Liberty's regulatory and accounting teams to bring a business perspective to interpretation, ensuring commercial objectives and technical prudence are weighed together. You will monitor regulatory, accounting, and industry trends, events, activities, and emerging structures, both to identify new opportunities for Liberty and to flag changes that may affect existing investments and current asset allocation. Working with the regulatory, accounting, and legal teams to understand the issues, you will be responsible for management actions that address needed changes in the current portfolio and for proposing emerging investment opportunities.
