Treasury Operations, SWIFT settlements, Nostro reconciliation, TLAC reporting, Data Quality Control — these roles exist everywhere in banking, but almost no one on the outside knows how to get into them or talk about them in interviews.
I spent 2.5 years at ICICI Bank in Treasury (Forex, Money Market, Bond settlements across UK, Germany, US, Canada) and 3 years at Morgan Stanley in Finance Shared Services (TLAC, DQC, unsecured debt reporting). This is my exact domain.

What treasury ops and back/mid-office banking actually looks like day-to-day
FX deal lifecycle, SWIFT, Nostro — explained in plain language
How to position yourself for these roles in interviews
TLAC, SOX, regulatory reporting — what you need to know as a fresher

Best for: Commerce PGs, MBA Finance students, or working professionals looking to move into banking operations or financial shared services.
