Enterprise Model Risk Management: Eine ganzheitliche Sicht ist entscheidend!

Model Risk Management (MRM) ist im Grunde nichts Neues: Finanzinstitute nutzen seit Jahrzehnten Modelle für ihre Entscheidungsfindung. Seit Kurzem jedoch ist das MRM formalisierter und strenger. Regulatorische Anforderungen – zum Beispiel die gezielte Überprüfung interner Modelle (kurz: TRIM) der Europäischen Bankenaufsichtsbehörde (EBA) – nehmen Banken in die Pflicht, die Compliance

Sterben klassische Transaktions-Monitoring-Systeme in der Geldwäscheprävention aus?

Im Rahmen meiner Tätigkeit im Vertrieb von Compliance-Software-Lösungen bin ich hauptsächlich im Bankensegment unterwegs, zunehmend aber auch bei Versicherungen.

„Crunch Time” im Bankensektor: Warum Stresstests jetzt Risk und Finance zusammenbringen

EBA-Stresstest, TRIM-Initiative – es gibt 2018 mehr denn je dringende Gründe für die Banken, sich konsequent datenorientiert und analytisch aufzustellen und so vom Gejagten der Aufsicht zum Jäger nach mehr Wertschöpfung zu werden.
