About the Role
As Head of Portfolio Management, you will be responsible for the management, analytics optimisation, and articulation of HSBC’s liquid asset portfolio and associated market risks. This role ensures the Liquid Asset Buffer (LAB) remains available for monetisation in stressed conditions while supporting prudent revenue optimisation within approved risk appetite and policy constraints. You will manage cash, liquidity, and funding for one of the legal entities, along with the bank’s overall high-quality liquid assets (HQLA) and short-term funding requirements. Success means clear portfolio positioning, robust risk management, and decision-grade management information for senior stakeholders and governance forums.
Responsibilities
- Own management of the securities component of the LAB to maintain liquidity resilience, diversification, and monetisation capability under stress within risk appetite and policy constraints.
- Manage market risks arising from the LAB and term interest rate risk buy-in, including execution of the entity’s Structural Hedge within established control frameworks and approved toolsets.
- Deliver portfolio analytics, stress and scenario analysis, dashboards, and management information across valuation, revenues, RWA performance, risk, and monetisation readiness.
- Manage the non-trading interest rate positions (banking book) transferred from Treasury to the function and generate stable revenues by optimising return on interest rates and HQLA.
- Shape and coordinate the global monetisation approach, assumptions, and execution disciplines across outright and repo markets in partnership with entity portfolio teams and the Global Treasury Portfolio Office.
- Contribute to global risk narrative and portfolio positioning across major currencies, particularly GBP, including outright curve and asset swap exposures.
- Translate external market developments into actionable insight on liquidity rates, spreads, and monetisation to support portfolio decision-making.
- Articulate portfolio composition, LAB availability, performance, and risk positioning to senior management and governance forums, and manage key internal stakeholders and relevant external counterparties.
- Oversee P&L and key risk and operational risk indicators, ensuring timely escalation and adherence to regulatory requirements, governance standards, internal controls, and risk management policies.
Requirements
- Bring significant experience in portfolio management, liquidity management, and/or Global Markets risk-taking roles.
- Demonstrate strong knowledge of liquidity management, monetisation, fixed income markets, repo markets, and interest rate risk.
- Apply deep product understanding across Fixed Income, interest rate derivatives, cross-currency swaps, and FX swaps.
- Use strong balance-sheet economics knowledge, including liquidity, funding, capital, leverage, structural interest-rate risk, and legal-entity considerations.
- Build and apply advanced quantitative and financial-modelling capability, including scenario analysis, stress testing, optimisation, forecasting, and assessment of portfolio risk and returns.
- Translate market intelligence, portfolio analytics, and financial-resource considerations into clear, actionable recommendations.
- Communicate complex market and quantitative analysis clearly in writing and verbally for senior management and governance forums.
- Evidence necessary professional certifications and qualifications to fulfil the responsibilities of the role or bring equivalent demonstrable experience.
