- Support regulatory submissions, licence maintenance, audits and due diligence exercises by collecting, checking, organising and tracking supporting information and evidence.
- Maintain checklists and calendars for corporate, regulatory and filing requirements,



and notify the Legal team of upcoming deadlines or missing information.
