Lesson 9, April 29: FRTB & New Regime for Model Governance & Risk Transparency

In Lesson 9, Sanjay and Jeb will review the FRTB requirement of a new model framework for model validation, model management, and model updates, which will require a new adjudication and governance process.


Lesson 10, May 6: FRTB Implementation Timelines & Milestones

In Lesson 10, we will review and discuss timelines as well as suggested internal milestones an organization needs to successfully implement FTRB. Banks will require extended timelines in order to plan, prepare, and approve the needed technology, systems, corporate governance, and training required to implement FRTB. Implementation deadlines will occur differentially in different jurisdictions and there will be subtleties of interpretation, which vary by geography. This session will help bring it all into focus.

In this final instructional class, we will outline likely timelines and nuances within major jurisdictions. We will also discuss in detail prospective project plans, which demonstrate the amount of work which needs to occur within a relatively short timeline.
