Model Risk Management – What It Is, and Why It Is Important

Model Risk Management (MRM) is a systematic process used by financial institutions (FIs) to govern, evaluate, and mitigate risks related to the utilization of mathematical models and quantitative techniques in their operations, particularly in the context of internal controls and governance for financial operations. These procedures are designed to reduce risks stemming from models and ensure their effective management. Initially considered necessary mainly for large banks employing data-driven forecasting models, this expectation now extends to smaller and midsize banks as well. Errors in spreadsheets and the data supporting them have become commonplace, especially given the advanced data modeling required for portfolio management and asset-liability management, which are both heavily reliant on data and models.
