Welcome to the Paragon resources hub
Here you’ll find a collection of useful materials on the techniques and considerations when it comes to developing, implementing, using and managing credit risk models, as well as the latest Paragon opinion and industry developments.
Using technology to help meet model risk management requirements
Technology has a key role to play in advancing the model risk management frameworks and capabilities within Banks and Building Societies, and help meet SS1/23 regulations. As firms are using more and more models to automate insights, actions and decisions there is a need to efficiently and effectively manage those models, which is now being demanded by the PRA. This is paramount given the limited resources available with the required skills and expertise in this specialised and sort after area. The increase in regulatory expectations in combination with the explosion in the number of models being developed and used is having a multiplicative effect on model risk management workloads.
