Regulatory Validation Services
A transparent and independent model review process is an integral part of modern model vetting and model risk frameworks.
CompatibL has hands-on experience and expert judgement in all aspects of model QA and review processes. We validated hundreds of models and software solutions for banks and asset managers across multiple model types with applications to valuation and risk management.
CompatibL’s regulatory expertise spans real-world and risk-neutral multi-factor and multi-asset risk models for most asset classes including interest rates, foreign exchange, equity, inflation, credit and commodities.
