In this context, you will be responsible for conducting internal model reviews (validation of the modeling, backtesting, etc.) that have been developed by the Group's modeling entities.

Your main missions will be:

- End to end responsibility of modeling validation missions, based on the planning and framework

- Interact with the modeling entities.

- Analyze and test methods by using both technical knowledge and critical thinking.

- Conduct quantitative reviews (statistics).

- Be vigilant in the analysis of the regulatory compliance, robustness and performance of these models.

- Contribute to the composition of a validation report in order to communicate the conclusions of the review mission.

- Contribute and present the results of the review at the Models Committee

.

- Ensure adequate documentation and archiving of the analyses carried out.

-Mentoring Junior team members

The functional expert works on many different topics such as: retail or wholesale credit risk (PD models, CCF models, LGD models, stress tests…), market risk models (VaR/SVaR/FRTB, EEPE, CVA, SIMM, IRC/CRM...), models developed under the IFRS 9 framework, models developed to comply with US regulatory requirements.

Profile required

Ideal candidate should be well versed in credit risk model development, validation and maintenance of models (PD, LGD and EAD) for wholesale and retail credit portfolio of the bank as per regulatory guidelines.

o Sensitivity analysis to test robustness.
- Analyze the model output and the related components (if applicable);
- Model assumptions and limitations validity;
- Results of benchmarking and sensitivity analysis;
- Accuracy of model's characteristics;(ROC/AUC, KS statistics, accuracy ratio, Gini coefficient etc)
- Monitor over time in order to follow up trends and detect deviations;
- Establish thresholds and action plan for major deviations;
- Report this analysis to the different model stakeholders.
- Implement a governance to monitor the corrective actions

Furthermore, as part of the model ongoing monitoring phase, the model monitor should abide by the group standards on ongoing monitoring that establish guidelines on performance assessment processes including type, scope and range of tests and appropriateness of responses to any problems that may appear.
