Work Experience
Nordea Treasury, Vice President and Head of Business & IT Infrastructure Development*, 2003- current
My unit is responsible for business and IT-infrastructure development within Nordea Treasury.
The work is project based using an agile approach and includes an overall responsibility throughout a project
life cycle. Some project examples:

with Reval as well reporting initiatives such as GSIB, EMIR, MIFID, FINREP etc.

liquidity and survival horizon within the Nordea Group according to ALCO limits.

derivatives matching as part of the Hedge Accounting process.
My team has been deeply involved in the implementation of a number of business critical solutions globally in
