The Commission is recruiting for Technical Specialists to join the Technology Supervision Unit (“TSU”) within the Banking and Insurance Division.
The Technology Supervision Unit (“TSU”) is a new unit within the supervisory area of the Commission that will provide technical support, resource and advice to the supervisory and policy Divisions within the Commission. The TSU’s main focus is the use, by industry, of all aspects of technology including but not limited to industry’s use of AI tools, Blockchain, Compliance Screening Systems, Cyber Security Systems as well as traditional Data Management tools and Systems Architecture.
