Manager/Assistant Vice President - Model Risk Auditor - Financial Services (3-10 yrs)

Mumbai Job Code: 762063

Role: Model Risk Auditor

Designation: Manager / AVP

Location: Mumbai

Model Risk Auditor

- This opportunity is for individuals with proven expertise in modeling of risk and valuation in financial services to join Model Risk Audit team within Internal Audit which is responsible for delivering independent assurance over model risks globally. The reach of the team extends to all functions of the bank (including risk management, pricing/valuation, capital, and other business decision making models).

- We are seeking candidates who will be responsible for the performance of audit projects to review model development and validation processes.

- The successful candidate will be expected to perform audit procedures covering the end to end model development and validation process, including: review and testing of model design, implementation, application, validation and governance processes.

Model risk audits typically include:

1. Review and assess the model development and independent model validation performed by company based on review and testing of the development and validation processes and documentation

2. Investigating key aspects of each model under review, incl. model documentation, model selection, input data, theoretical construction, implementation (independent calculation) and model governance (inventory related models, issues, escalation, agreed actions, approvals/limitations and/or conditions of use) with reference to internal policies and regulatory requirements (e.g. FED SR11/7)

3. Participation in working groups addressing modeling issues and the model control environment

4. Reviewing findings with colleagues in different audit groups including business and subject matter experts

5. Verifying effective controls and procedures to mitigate for model risk and residual uncertainty

6. Documenting the testing performed

As a part of this team the candidate will get exposure to modeling and model validation in a wide range of activities, including risk management, pricing/valuation, capital, stress testing, and other business decision making models. The current heightened regulatory focus on these areas and the broader model risk scopes also guarantees a significant level of interest and visibility to the business and senior management.

Desired Candidate Profile

Candidates for the role in the Internal Audit Model Risk team are expected to have the following:

1. A first degree in mathematics, physics, engineering, finance or econometrics and ideally a Masters or PhD in one of those areas or finance. Front end/Risk Management systems would be an advantage

2. Applied experience of model risk and capital modeling, derivatives pricing and broader financial modeling is desirable, but regardless of experience all candidates should be able to demonstrate an understanding of capital modeling, financial and derivative products and mathematics, from private study if they have not worked in the financial sector

3. Experience in model risk assurance activities (internal/external audit, independent validation or regulatory environment) would be an added advantage

4. Excellent knowledge in risk management, quantitative analysis and applied applications
