Real-time Customer Decisions in the Age of AI

Friday, August 30, 2024 • Duration 22:32

Hear from Terisa Roberts, Global Head of Risk Modeling and Decisioning at SAS and Sarah Murphy, Principal Director of Accenture Data and AI, as we explore real-time customer decision making and what it means for portfolio monitoring.

Thanks to the internet and artificial intelligence, consumers today can make financial decisions through multiple channels, resulting in a new level of competitive pressure for the sector. Financial services firms must make decisions that are not only fast and reliable, but also automated. Real-time customer decisioning plays a pivotal role in achieving these goals throughout the credit value chain, from the point of onboarding (including KYC, credit risk and fraud assessments and marketing) and beyond.

Today's episode will focus on:

What are the global trends driving change in customer decisioning in financial services?

What problems/challenges are there with conventional approaches? What are the benefits of modernizing your credit decisioning infrastructure?

How are forward-thinking organizations deriving concrete business value from their decisioning modernization projects?

Stress Testing: Past, Present and Future

Thursday, August 15, 2024 • Duration 32:25

Hear from Cristian deRitis, deputy chief economist at Moody's analytics, about the evolution of stress testing, current trends, and the biggest challenges facing banks and regulators.

Regulatory stress tests play a vital role in ensuring that large banks hold enough capital to withstand extreme recessions, while internal stress tests at banks are used for everything from capital and liquidity planning to risk monitoring, risk identification and operational resilience.

The 2023 failures of a group of mid-sized U.S. banks, however, have led some critics to question whether the Federal Reserve's annual stress test is broad enough, comprehensive enough and sufficiently proactive – particularly with respect to emerging threats and rare tail risks. Globally, meanwhile, we've seen stress testing expand beyond capital and liquidity and into areas like climate risk, which has created a whole new set of hurdles for regulators and banks.

In the future, to address perceived flaws, it's feasible that we could see a broadening of regulatory stress tests and changes to central banks' approaches to scenarios. Banks, meanwhile, may consider increasing the frequency of their internal tests and expanding their use of AI models to rapidly factor in a wider array of scenarios.

Risk Management's Latest Trial by Crisis

Friday, May 12, 2023 • Duration 27:42

Hear veteran risk manager, advisor and professor Clifford Rossi's perspective on recent turmoil in the banking system, on where risk management fell short, and the profession's readiness for future challenges.

The collapse of Silicon Valley Bank (SVB) and subsequent events inevitably invited comparisons with past crises. It was widely assumed that the damages of 2023 would be more contained than those of the Great Financial Crisis of 2008. But they could similarly leave a long tail, with economic and regulatory repercussions well into the future.

A clear parallel between 2008 and 2023 is the spotlight placed on risk management. In the intervening years, the risk function in banking and financial services grew in prestige and responsibility – and its failings were documented as having played a role in SVB's demise.

Drawing from regulatory experience early in his career, to senior risk and credit positions at major financial institutions, to his current professorship at the University of Maryland, Cliff Rossi has lived through multiple crises while observing the effectiveness and evolution of risk management. GARP Risk Intelligence's CRO Outlook columnist, Rossi has been especially critical of boards of directors' risk governance, one of many timely subjects covered in his podcast conversation with GARP contributing editor Jeff Kutler.

SPEAKER'S BIO

Clifford Rossi (PhD) is an Executive-in-Residence and Professor of the Practice at the Robert H. Smith School of Business, University of Maryland. He is also the author of GARP's monthly "CRO Outlook" column.

Prior to entering academia, Rossi had nearly 25 years of experience in banking and government, having held senior executive roles in risk management at several of the largest financial services companies. His most recent position was Managing Director and Chief Risk Officer for Citigroup's Consumer Lending Group, where he was responsible for overseeing the risk of a $300+B global portfolio of mortgage, home equity, student loans and auto loans with 700 employees under his direction. While there he was intimately involved in Citi's TARP and stress test activities. He also served as Chief Credit Officer at Washington Mutual (WaMu) and as Managing Director and Chief Risk Officer at Countrywide Bank.

Behind the Balance Sheet Part 1: Integrated Balance Sheet Management in the Current Banking Climate

Hear from Dr. Donald van Deventer, Managing Director--Risk Research and Quantitative Solutions at SAS, and Professor Robert Jarrow of Cornell University's SC Johnson College of Business as we continue our discussion of the current banking climate as it relates to integrated balance sheet management — and specifically asset and liability management (ALM).

This special two-part podcast series will explore conditions under which a bank is at risk of a "run" by looking internally at their assets and liabilities. We will also consider how to model simulations to project when assets will become negative relative to liabilities and determine how to ensure resiliency within financial institutions.

Part 1 of this series will tackle the following topics:

Introduction to deposit models for FDIC insurance
How to handle hedging and mismatched balance sheets
Determining what analytical methods are essential to "doing it right"
An introduction to non-maturity demand deposit runoff that will be a key component for part 2 of this series

SVB and Signature Bank: The Roles of Risk Modeling, Culture and Stress Testing

Friday, April 14, 2023 • Duration 24:45

Hear from risk modeling expert Tony Hughes about the parts various risk management techniques played in recent bank failures, as well as the current challenges facing modelers.

Risk models have grabbed headlines for all the wrong reasons over the past couple of years, and now they are in the news again thanks to the sudden collapses of Silicon Valley Bank and Signature Bank. People want to know why the internal risk models at these banks did not properly account for interest-rate risk and why they seemed completely unprepared when their depositors made a mad dash for the exits.

The failures have also raised thought-provoking questions about liquidity risk management deficiencies, the proper use of stress testing, risk governance problems, and the flaws in current bank regulation.

What's more, these issues are being raised at a time when modelers are contending with other significant challenges, such as forecasting for expected credit losses during a time of great uncertainty.

Risk modeling maestro Tony Hughes, Risk Intelligence's "Risk Weighted" columnist, joins GARP editorial director Robert Sales to discuss some of the hottest FRM issues of today.

Speaker's Bio:

Tony Hughes is a risk modeling and ESG expert. He has more than 20 years of experience as a senior risk professional in North America, Europe and Australia, specializing in model risk management, model build/validation and quantitative climate risk solutions.

Forecasting 2023: Predictions for Financial and Non-Financial Risks

Friday, February 17, 2023 • Duration 28:59

Hear risk management prognostications from Cris deRitis, the deputy chief economist at Moody's Analytics.

Risk managers have been severely tested over the past 12 months. Rising interest rates, supply-chain problems, inflation and heightened geopolitical risk contributed to an environment of volatility and uncertainty, and many financial institutions grabbed headlines for all of the wrong reasons.

Operational risk disasters, for example, have cost large banks hundreds of millions of dollars. Credit risk modelers, meanwhile, are still trying to figure out the best path forward after wrongly forecasting a wave of defaults amid the pandemic.

The financial sector was also hit hard by data breaches that exposed cybersecurity flaws, while cryptocurrencies, highlighted by the collapse of FTX, experienced a host of failures as part of the so-called "crypto winter." Last but certainly not least, we've witnessed the expansion of artificial intelligence in financial risk management, though concerns about explainability, bias and transparency remain.

How will the remainder of 2023 of shake out? What regulatory changes may be on the horizon, and which trends will have the greatest impact? Cris deRitis, the deputy chief economist at Moody's Analytics, speaks with GARP editorial director Robert Sales about what lies ahead for risk managers.

Future-Proofing Liquidity Risk: The Stagflation Dilemma

Wednesday, December 7, 2022 • Duration 24:06

Hear from Alla Gil, the co-founder and CEO of Straterix, as we examine the liquidity risk challenges and trends that have been fueled by extremely rare market conditions.

In a recent survey conducted by the Securities Industry and Financial Markets Association, 80% of economists named stagflation – or a combination of high inflation and stagnant growth – as the greatest long-term risk to the U.S. economy. The economists said that stagflation presents an even bigger threat than a 2023 recession, and this news has undoubtedly added to the consternation currently felt by liquidity risk managers.

We haven't seen a true period of stagflation in the U.S. since the oil crisis of the 1970s, and its therefore very difficult to factor this anomalous macroeconomic risk into contemporary liquidity risk models.

Alla Gil joins GARP editorial director Robert Sales to discuss the impact of stagflation and the steps risk practitioners responsible for modeling and managing liquidity risk can take to ensure that they have enough cash on hand, both now and in the future?

SPEAKER's BIO:

Alla Gil is CEO and co-founder of Straterix Inc. With an academic background in theoretical mathematics, she began her Wall Street career at Goldman Sachs, working on stochastic models for derivative pricing. While heading Global Strategic Advisory teams at Citigroup, Nomura - and again at Goldman Sachs - she introduced stochastic modelling and an optimization approach to the world of corporate finance. Over a 20-year period, Alla advised banks, sovereign treasuries, insurance companies, asset managers, and pension funds on ALM, stress testing, long-term risk projections, liquidity, optimal capital allocation and balance sheet optimization With Straterix, she has developed a methodology and tools that enable clients to automate the process of scenario creation and expansion to assist in strategic capital planning and optimization, as well as risk management and stress testing.
