Senior Compliance Analyst
Manny Batalla, CIPM, IACCP
Compliance & Business Administration Team
As a Senior Compliance Analyst, it’s my responsibility to stay familiar with regulatory developments and make sure we’re interpreting and applying laws and regulations appropriately. I also ensure that we make trades that align with clients’ investment preferences.
Consistent improvement is a hallmark of operations. I’m always researching a task, process, or activity to see if a better, more automated approach exists. I’m a firm believer in the power of computing to reduce inefficiencies.
Silos and territorialism are nonexistent here. We’re a nimble shop where everyone stays focused on client service.
If it’s tropical, it’s on my bucket list. When not programming VBA macros, I’m hunting for flights to Hawaii, the Caribbean, or other exotic beach locales.
“Navigating the maze of legal and regulatory jargon, interpretations, and mandates is not for the timid. But bringing clarity is essential to great client service.”
