Need advice on Operational Risk in Reinsurance
Got called down for an interview for a fulltime role in operational risk at Swiss Re in about a week's time. I have a few questions regarding the role that I'm hoping someone here would be kind enough to shed some light on.
-
Job description was generic, stating that the job involves ensuring compliance of the internal processes to guidelines or frameworks, maintaining of dashboards etc. I understand the general idea of operational risk, but what does it involve in a Reinsurance company, and how does it differ from other FIs such as banks?
-
Is this role related to finance at all, or does it just involve pure operations of an MNC?
-
I have another interview lined up for a role in investment performance in a mid sized investment management firm. Assuming that I do get offers from both companies, which role would be better in terms of career progression/opportunities and salary(long term)?
Thank you.
