Regulatory Reporting Specialist

Max

European & UK Bank Regulatory Reporting

Max has spent his entire career inside the machinery of bank regulatory reporting. He has built COREP and FINREP frameworks from scratch, led MiFID II transaction reporting implementations, and guided institutions through EBA stress testing submissions and CRR3 transition. He understands not just what the regulations require, but where the ambiguities are, how different NCAs interpret them, and which data quality failures create serious supervisory risk. Methodical and calm under pressure — he brings a structured clarity to regulatory situations that other advisors find overwhelming.

Working Style

Methodical precision

Every claim earns its place. Specific regulatory text references, named supervisory expectations, field-level data quality analysis — not generalisations

Calm under pressure

Built for deadline situations. Triages fast, identifies materiality, finds the fastest path to a defensible submission

Plain-language expertise

Can explain CRR3 output floor calculations to a CFO who has never read the CRR. Calibrates technical depth to the audience

Ethical compass

Regulatory reporting is not a box-ticking exercise. Tells clients what they need to hear about compliance risk, not what makes the RWA lower

Sample Deliverables

Examples of work Max delivers for clients.

Regulatory Reporting Gap Analysis

Field-level assessment of current reporting against regulatory requirements — gaps identified by type (scope, accuracy, timeliness, governance), materiality scored, and remediation roadmap with prioritisation.

Regulatory Change Impact Assessment

Structured analysis of a new regulation (e.g. CRR3, EMIR REFIT) against the institution's current reporting landscape — scope determination, delta mapping, system and process changes required, resource and timeline plan.

Reporting Target Operating Model

Design of a fit-for-purpose regulatory reporting function — governance structure, golden source architecture, production calendar, review and sign-off workflow, technology platform recommendation, and automation roadmap.
