Principal Associate, Liquidity Risk Management

Location: Richmond, Virginia; McLean, Virginia
Job ID R209063 Updated date 02/25/2025
Principal Associate, Liquidity Risk Management

The Liquidity Risk Management (LRM) team, within Capital One’s Capital Markets and Analytics (CMA) organization, is responsible for identifying, measuring and managing the company’s liquidity risk in accordance with applicable regulations and within our Board approved risk appetite levels. The team utilizes several key liquidity frameworks designed to appropriately analyze and manage the short and long-term liquidity risk across the firm. These frameworks are driven by both internal and regulatory considerations, including Capital One’s Internal Liquidity Stress Test (Fortify Funding), the Holding Company’s Liquidity position, Liquidity Coverage Ratio (LCR), Net Stable Funding Ratio (NSFR), and Capital One’s Contingency Funding Plan.  These frameworks are key drivers in shaping the size and composition of the company’s liquidity buffer, as well as influencing the funding profile and strategic investments.

To ensure we accurately size and account for liquidity risk, it is essential that we understand and integrate evolving business drivers/requirements, new products, or acquisitions into these frameworks. This role on the LRM team offers a high performing candidate the unique opportunity to partner with various lines of business, Finance and Risk departments, and the Corporate Development team to gain a deep understanding of liquidity risk management practices, while utilizing all aspects of our underlying technology infrastructure to deliver best in class liquidity modeling.

This role will be primarily responsible for the monthly production for the Fortify Funding and Holding Company Coverage ratios, including managing the monthly execution and the annual assumption update process for each program. In addition, this role will be instrumental in setting strategy for balance sheet positioning to optimize Fortify Funding and our Holding Company Coverage Ratio. In addition to a core responsibility focused on monthly stress testing, this role will also gain exposure to Capital One’s full liquidity adequacy framework, inclusive of all internal and regulatory liquidity stress testing frameworks. This role will also serve as a support to the LCR and NSFR metrics, including operations and strategic deliverables. The ideal candidate will become well versed in both metrics to increase their leverage and impact on the team.
