Model Risk Management (MRM) Solutions

What is Model Risk? (And Why Should You Care?)

When an organization uses a model, the term ‘model risk’ simply refers to the potential losses it may incur due to errors in development or use of the model in question.

And why should you care about monitoring model risk?

Models — whether based on economic theories, statistical calculations, or predictive analytics — often rely on assumptions that can be flawed or incomplete, or become so over time (“model drift”). Factor in risks tied to inaccurate data inputs, human error, and technical or programming issues, and that risk can get costly (especially at scale) in terms of operational losses, regulatory fines, and repetitional damage.

The Missing Link: EUC and Model Risk Management (MRM)

New MRM Rules Are Reshaping Risk Strategy - Are You Controlling Your Tools and DQMs?

Financial institutions have come under increasing scrutiny from regulatory bodies about their use of models. 

The UK’s SS1/23 from the Bank of England’s PRA, OSFI Canada’s E23, and the OCC’s renewed focus on model risk management (Comptrollers Handbook – Model Risk Management)  — all are emphasizing the critical need for board-level oversight and the establishment of robust model risk frameworks.

They are also expecting firms to look at the wider ecosystem that models reply on for data — these Tools or DQMs (Deterministic Quantitative Methods as defined by the PRA) are integral to the Models they support, and as such, the Regulators expect them to have similar, but appropriate, controls in place.  As a minimum, firms should:

  • Have a centralized inventory
  • Ensure they are risk ranked
  • Keep the appropriate controls in place

Model Risk Management Frameworks

As reliance on models (particularly AI-driven ones) accelerates, businesses must ensure that they:

  • Have a complete inventory of models
  • Adopt stringent safeguards to ensure accuracy and compliance

Neglecting these controls isn’t just a technical oversight — it’s a strategic and regulatory risk.

With a strong model risk framework in place, institutions can vastly improve the efficiency and governance of their models, helping to avoid errors, losses, and reputational harm. But, how are businesses ensuring their risk management processes are up to the test?

As highlighted in our white paper with Chartis Research, the demand for greater model transparency is only set to grow, and organizations must adapt.

Manual Processes Are No Longer Enough for Model Governance

Model environments often span multiple platforms—SAS, Python, R, and even Excel—creating value but also significant challenges in sustaining informal, decentralized systems.

Manual Model Risk Management adds pressure on staff to ensure accuracy, track changes, generate reports, and meet growing transparency demands from management and regulators. With constrained resources, teams struggle to maintain models, mitigate risk, and meet heightened regulatory requirements efficiently.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs) FAQs: Your Third-Party Risk Management Solution Questions, Answered.

What is Model Risk Management, and why is it important?

Model Risk Management (MRM) is the process of identifying, assessing, and mitigating risks associated with the use of models within an organization. This includes ensuring models are accurate, compliant, and transparent. Effective MRM helps prevent financial, operational, and regulatory risks arising from model errors or misuse, ensuring models deliver reliable results and maintain business integrity.

What are the key benefits of automating model risk assessments?

Automating model risk assessments leads to several key benefits:

  • Improved Efficiency: Reduces manual effort and accelerates the assessment process.
  • Consistency: Ensures assessments are thorough and standardized across the organization.
  • Transparency: Automatically documents processes and results, making it easier to demonstrate compliance.
  • Reduced Risk: Minimizes human error and provides more timely insights into potential model failures.

How do you ensure compliance with regulatory standards in model risk management?

Our platform is designed to align with key regulatory frameworks, ensuring that all model risk assessments, validations, and documentation comply with industry standards and regulatory requirements.
