- Responsibility for all regulatory returns (e.g. AIFMD annual report, Annex IV reporting) and tax returns (incl. VAT, FATCA & CRS) for the Funds.
- Control budget and fees for our service providers.
Oversight of delegates and other counterparties (the “counterparties”) (33%)
- Supporting the oversight of fund administrators and depositaries, which includes the review and challenge of key performance indicators produced by the counterparties, but also the coordination within the Group in case of operational issues or new regulatory requirements to implement.
- Supporting Group operations teams and depositary banks on ownership verification of assets held by the Funds (e.g. participation to regular calls on investment activity, reconciliation of Fund’s portfolio).
- Supporting the onboarding of Fund administrator and depositary bank in case a new Fund is launched (e.g. reviewing constitutive Fund documents and legal agreements, performing a risk assessment on each new Fund launch, implementing or amending Fund administrator or depositary bank operating memorandum).
- Preparing the periodic due diligence on Fund administrators and depositary banks (e.g. review of the due diligence questionnaire, review of the answers received, on-site visit, preparation of the due diligence report).
- Coordination of the other due diligences needed (e.g. sub-custodian, due diligence the Depositary Banks should perform on AIFM or on Fund administrator and other Blackstone affiliates).
Governance and reporting to senior management (33%)
- Proposing improvements of the FFO processes, enhancement of procedures and processes as well as the use of offshore resources and technology.
- Ensuring a robust control environment for all financial reporting, to ensure compliance with all relevant obligations (e.g. reviewing and amending policies and procedures accordingly).
- Assisting the Investor Relations team with ad-hoc and recurring requests from current investors, as well as addressing requests in respect of prospective investors (e.g. preparing supporting documents in case of an operational due diligence made by an investor).
