The Compliance Team

Dimensional’s Compliance and Risk Management Department is charged with the development and oversight of the firm’s compliance internal controls, policies, and procedures, and risk management framework. Our global structure follows the sun, with compliance personnel established at each office to ensure compliance coverage around the clock. We have a consultative approach that embeds compliance and risk management staff within the groups they support wherever practical, encouraging communication among teams and improving efficiency with real-time guidance. Compliance teams coordinate the establishment and monitoring of processes and controls for compliance with applicable laws, rules, and regulatory standards; internal and client-directed guidelines; and contractual agreements.

- Assist the global risk management team with maintaining appropriate risk management systems.
- Assist the local Compliance and Risk team with the maintenance and oversight of the Code of Ethics, internal register reviews and monitoring programs, as well as assisting with the drafting of compliance papers and working group materials.
- Develop a commercial understanding of Chapter 5C (Managed Invest Schemes) and Chapter 7 (Financial Services and Markets) of the Corporations Act and associated ASIC Regulatory Guides as well as internal policies so as to assist the business in providing relevant compliance and regulatory advice.
