Risk Measurement
Leading competence and substantial resources
The quantification of identified risks in your Treasury is one of the more crucial steps in your Risk Management process. Adequate models developed in customized systems with necessary performance must be in place which, in addition, are expected to reflect an appropriate risk appetite framework.
We offer comprehensive calculation support through our analytical tool ARMS. ARMS covers, among other things, tools for ALM-analysis, calculations of EVE and NII as well as CSRBB according to current regulations and the upcoming IRRBB regulations coming into force during 2023.
Additional services include: valuation of financial instruments, calculation of multicurrency market risks in terms of all kinds of VaR and pillar 2 models, stress tests, scenario analyses and device for monitoring your high-quality liquid assets portfolio, HQLA.
We also assist you in designing requirement specifications and the implementation of potential treasury systems and support you with general advisory concerning regulatory requirements and calculation methodologies and conventions. The services are provided on a recurring basis but also as advisory on ad-hoc basis
Model Validation
Innovative solutions in the data modelling field
According to regulations, a bank must have control over the risks associated with its business. Banks and financial institutions use risk models to measure identified risks and follow up on risk levels in accordance with a given risk appetite.
Model risk is defined as the potential loss that an institution may observe because of decisions based mainly on the results of incorrect internal models, due to errors in the development, implementation or use of such models. Model validation is required for models used for capital adequacy. For other decision models, model risk must be mitigated as well ensuring a sound model risk framework.
We offer model validation services that ensure true independent model validation covering best-practice for models used in Treasury functions like IRRBB, VaR, ICAAP & ILAAP or stress-test concepts.
Assessment is performed qualitatively by evaluating model concept, model assumptions and model governance. In addition to the qualitative assessment, a quantitative assessment of used indata and output tests are performed to evaluate model accuracy
Regulatory Reporting
Regulators insight into your institutions risk management
We help institutions understand and meet their current regulatory challenges and provide insights on how new regulatory changes will impact them. We offer tailor-made solutions that support and empower your company through the complex maze of regulatory reporting challenges you may face. Our services include reviewing your current regulatory reports, implementing reporting systems, analysing the impact of new regulations, and providing interim expertise.
Institutions today face challenges in adhering to a constantly changing regulatory atmosphere. As the complexity of institutions rises, so does the complexity of regulatory requirements. The introduction of CRD IV/CRR and the forthcoming CRR III introduces higher capital adequacy and reporting requirements, both in terms of increased capital requirements as well as new reporting templates and formats.
This adds further demand on adaptation and implementation of IT systems and regulatory interpretations through the technical standards that must be complied with to satisfy the requirements. In addition, there are also major challenges in following up and interpreting revisions of regulatory frameworks that constantly change and evolve.
We offer tailor-made reporting-as-a-service solutions (COREP/FINREP/LIQREP/IFR reporting), enhancing regulatory reporting control and quality assurance. We also provide interim solutions, audit your reports, and monitor upcoming regulatory changes that will affect your company and its regulatory reporting.
