• Analysis of data (amongst other, ESG data), especially with regards to optimization and readiness across tools and teams
• Further application of digitalization, machine reading and AI functionalities (e.g. OCR, chatbot and SecureGPT)
• Further enhancements of the IT platform based on the Business needs defined and any future need (amongst others, leveraging RDR for Capza and the Structured Finance business, as well as CRE Debt and Infrastructure)

In addition, all related workstreams with respect to closing the BNP transaction and integrating the businesses will be crucial going forward. LIFT will play a key role to deliver on resp. support these workstreams.

• A holistic view on the workstream towards the overall Operating Model and IT platform is given.

1. Make sure that the business requirements which result from the workstreams are reflected in the Operating Model and IT landscape accordingly and potential dependencies to other workstreams are considered. In this context, work closely together with - amongst other - the various Businesses, Data Management, Responsible Investment, the IT workstream and Risk/Compliance
2. Facilitate that the contributors and other stakeholders of the project embark the envisaged changes and act as change ambassadors going forward
