Model Validation isn’t new to banking. But with regulators and auditors demanding more and more stringent proof of models’ proper implementation, the slow, painful and expensive process of executing model validation can quickly become a burden – weighing down quant teams and cutting into already tight profit margins.
What if you could have detailed, transparent, regulator ready reporting at your fingertips without straining internal resources? What if you could leverage state of the art mathematical testing run across thousands of scenarios and supported by recognized mathematical theorems? What if you could also get expert insights on model suitability? And what if you could get all this for not only Numerix models but bespoke models and libraries?
In this webinar recorded on November 6th, 2014 featured speakers Jim Jockle, Chief Marketing Officer at Numerix, explored the challenges banks face in addressing the risks and regulatory requirements around model validation. Then, Dr. David Eliezer, Vice President and Head of Model Validation, shared how Numerix addresses these challenges through the Numerix suite of Model Risk Management Solutions.
The seminar will cover:
Regulatory Drivers and Pain Points to Model Validation
The Numerix Model Validation Approach
Calibration Testing
Smoothness Testing
Numerix Validation Reports
Quarterly Reporting
Regulator Ready
Third Party Models
