SR Letter 11-7 - Supervisory Guidance on Model Risk Management

This training program will detail why SR Letter 11-7 has become the gold standard for model risk management, with its principle being adopted not only by banks but also virtually all U.S. financial institutions.

Why Should You Attend:

Financial institutions rely on models and quantitative analysis to perform key activities such as investment valuations, risk management, and liquidity and capital management. A sound management of the risks inherent in the use of mathematical models is imperative to reduce the risk of reliance on flawed or misapplied models. SR Letter 11-7, issued jointly by the Federal Reserve and OCC, provides comprehensive guidance for banks on effective model risk management.
