Model behavior – Is your ALM model capturing your bank’s risks?

Description

Abstract: Asset-liability management (ALM) is a critical activity for banks — not just for meeting regulators’ expectations, but also as a strategic tool for controlling risk and enhancing performance. In today’s high-risk environment, it’s critical for a bank’s board of directors or asset and liability committee to take a proactive approach to ALM. There are a variety of ALM modeling software programs available, but the type of model and level of sophistication that’s right for a particular bank depends on the bank’s size, complexity, business model, risk profile and other characteristics.
