  2. Stress Testing & Scenario Analysis: Conduct stress tests and scenario analysis to identify potential vulnerabilities in automated trading systems and wallet security under various market conditions (e.g., extreme volatility, liquidity crunches).
  3. Data-Driven Insights: Utilize advanced data analytics and modeling to provide insights into potential risks and suggest strategies for mitigating them. Leverage data to predict risk scenarios and implement proactive measures.

4. Regulatory Compliance & Reporting:

  1. Compliance Oversight: Ensure that the platform adheres to all relevant financial regulations in the context of automated trading, CFD operations, and wallet management.
  2. Audit & Reporting: Prepare detailed reports on platform performance, risk exposure, and compliance status for senior management and regulatory bodies. Address any findings from internal or external audits promptly.
  3. AML/KYC Compliance: Ensure all automated systems and wallet activities are in compliance with AML (Anti-Money Laundering) and KYC (Know Your Customer) regulations. This includes monitoring for suspicious trading patterns and transactions.

5. Crisis Management & Incident Response:

  1. Incident Management: Lead the response to any system failures, breaches, or anomalies in the automated trading system or wallet management. Implement measures to resolve the issue swiftly and prevent recurrence.
  2. Crisis Planning: Develop contingency plans to ensure business continuity during platform outages, cyber-attacks, or financial crises.

6. Cross-Functional Collaboration:

  1. Collaboration with Tech Teams: Work closely with developers, IT security teams, and product managers to ensure the smooth functioning of the automated trading systems and wallet infrastructure.
