Reviewing model documentation to evaluate the conceptual soundness of the model and the robustness of its infrastructure from inputs to use of the outputs.
-
Raising validation challenges/findings with model owners and follow through to resolution.

MRO will act as the front door for the business to advance their AI ambitions, requiring excellent collaboration with our CCOR teams (e.g., Data Risks, Cyber and Security, Supplier Management, Conduct).
Our Purpose: Better Models, Better Decisions, Better Outcomes.
