Practical Model Validation

 

These days, risk management is more important than ever, and an often overlooked component of it is model risk (all models are wrong, but some are useful, as George Box once put it). Handling this particular risk is the responsibility of model validators, who need to negotiate a complex ecosystem of quantitative / methodological requirements, regulatory setup and the business practice.
Practical Model Validation course will focus on quantitative and qualitative aspects of model validation as currently practiced in leading financial institutions. The course will present a hands-on approach to industry best practices in model validation, taught by a practitioner with extensive experience of different parts of the modeling community.
The course is designed to provide the attendees with an understanding of the documentation data- code pipeline characterizing a model validation process, while embedding those considerations in the wider context of expert judgment issues, regulatory framework and the struggle for model validation independence.
