The rapid adoption of machine learning (ML) models in financial institutions has brought new challenges in model risk management (MRM). This paper addresses the key challenges financial institutions face in managing model risk and introduces a solution called Validation on Demand. The challenges include increasing model complexity, rapidly evolving and changing regulations, and a lack of model validation efficiency. These challenges impact modeling and risk teams within financial institutions and can have far-reaching consequences such as reputational damage, increased capital requirements, and regulatory pressure.
Vectice for Validation on Demand
To overcome the challenges, we introduce the concept of Validation on Demand offering a comprehensive solution by synchronizing the validation process between modeling and risk teams, enabling iterative model development and documentation, and ensuring compliance with regulatory requirements. This solution provides modeling teams with a technology-agnostic code-based interface, allowing them to work efficiently. In contrast, risk teams benefit from a graphical interface that provides real-time monitoring and validation capabilities.

Streamlining Model Risk Management
Vectice, a platform designed to streamline Model Risk Management processes, offers the necessary tools and processes to address the challenges faced by financial institutions. It provides standardized processes and guidance for modeling teams, facilitates the documentation of technical and non-technical assumptions, and offers an asset catalog for tracking and managing models. With smart widgets, ML auto-documentation, approval history, and enhanced visibility, financial institutions can improve the efficiency and accuracy of model risk management.
Implementing Validation on Demand with Vectice
By implementing Validation on Demand and leveraging the capabilities of Vectice, financial institutions can effectively manage model risk, ensure regulatory compliance, and enhance the reliability of ML models used for decision-making. This paper explores the impact of Validation on Demand. It highlights its benefits to financial institutions, enabling them to mitigate risks, meet regulatory requirements, and achieve long-term success and stability in an increasingly complex financial landscape.
The rapid adoption of machine learning models in financial institutions has necessitated effective model risk management. Validation on Demand, in conjunction with the Vectice platform, provides a comprehensive solution to address the challenges faced by financial institutions. By synchronizing the validation process, enabling iterative model development, and ensuring compliance, financial institutions can mitigate risks and enhance the reliability of their ML models.
