Develop systems and monitoring approaches that identify emerging market conduct risks and support proactive regulatory action.

Compliance and Enforcement

Interpret complex insurance legislation, regulations, and policy requirements to support sound regulatory decision-making.
Review investigation findings and determine appropriate corrective actions and compliance responses.
Recommend enforcement actions, including administrative penalties, Ministerial Orders, reprimands, license suspensions, cancellations, and court proceedings.
