Your team

The IMT program is a major initiative within UBS to ensure that we have independent testing and assurance as to the key controls that address our major risks. The IMT program is currently in a growth stage as we transfer from external providers to build the in-house capability to support our existing control and operational risk framework and ensure a robust testing & assurance program. The IMT program currently has three major work streams : SOX, Information Technology and Compliance.
The IMT team sits within the Global Compliance & Operational Risk Control (C&ORC) Assurance team, which itself is part of the Monitoring & Oversight team within C&ORC.
