Credit Risk Modeler

The Independent Validation group in Credit GDI&A department safeguards the Model Risk Management Framework of the company. Validation is a powerful tool in model risk management and is a regulatory obligation.

The findings of the validation are presented in a validation report. Such a report will typically contain a recommendation towards the risk committee mandated to grant model approvals, as well as proposals for mitigating action in case model deficiencies have been identified
