With the evolving landscape of digital threats and an increasing volume of sophisticated attacks by malicious actors, we have a security policy mandating all new hires complete an in-person onboarding process - no exceptions. Security is our foundation and we prioritize physical identity verification and secure IT setup. While our security and IT logistics require physical presence to protect our infrastructure from sophisticated global threats, this move is equally about our Village culture. We believe that a laptop can be shipped, but our culture cannot.

Organizational Knowledge - Understand how the Global Markets business works end to end. - Understand the firm’s regulatory obligations, including CFTC and NFA requirements for the swap dealer, and how risk outputs feed capital, liquidity and regulatory reporting. - Understand the systems and data that produce positions, prices and collateral values, including their limitations. - Apply the firm’s risk appetite, policies and governance structure (risk committees, escalation paths, approvals) in day-to-day decisions.
