The congress brought together some of the industry’s leading experts in risk management and was attended by representatives from institutions such as Unicredit, ING, Credit Suisse, Nordea, etc. Attendees had the opportunity to discuss key issues for the industry such as the challenges and implications of credit risk management, IFRS 9, the new regulation for AIRB models, how to define and develop an adequate risk appetite framework, the main challenges in stress testing, and major innovations associated with credit risk management digitization.
Management Solutions’ presentation, delivered by Javier Calvo and entitled "Model risk: myths debunked and burning trends", reviewed the latest trends in model risk management, going beyond best practice in European and US banks and raising a discussion on issues still unresolved in relation to this subject, such as the management of the risk implied in the use of artificial intelligence models or the quantification of model risk.
