RiskHub Warsaw was created as a part of central risk team currently located in Amsterdam. In Warsaw we are building following areas:

• Data and Tools
• Credit & ALM Risk Modelling
• Model Risk Management & Model Validation
• IT for Modeling & Analytics

Within Model Risk Management area we are building a new chapter of Data Science Model Validation (DSMV) part of Model Risk Oversight (MRO). MRO is a fast growing, energetic, international team of highly qualified Model Risk experts, Business Analysts, and DevOps Engineers. MRO is developing and rolling out the new Model Risk Management (MoRM) framework which scope covers all models used within ING Bank worldwide.

The Data Science Model Validation (DSMV) team is a chapter within the MRO tribe. We are responsible for validating data science and other non-regulatory models used by ING worldwide. By bringing in our expertise we assure that models are appropriate for intended use, compliant with internal policies and external regulations and its limitations are well understood by the organization. Our goal is to ensure a strong model validation and model lifecycle landscape within ING.

The Risk Hub Warsaw MRO team supports/guides global and local model communities in execution of the model life cycle activities, together with Global MRO team facilitates oversight, monitoring model risk, and reporting for local entities.

Within RiskHub Warsaw, we are looking for Model Validator for Data Science and other non-regulatory models to ensure continuous focus on Model Risk Lifecycle and Model Risk Management.

Background

With the increasing attention on Know Your Customer (KYC) and Anti Money Laundering (AML) and the development of complex models using data science techniques, ING is setting up a new validation team in Warsaw within Central MRO Data Science Model Validation (DSMV) team. This team will focus on different data science models from domains like KYC, AML, Customer Interactions and Loan Pricing. The KYC / AML models are designed to identify and detect patterns that are amongst others related to customer’s behavior, activities and transactions. This team will help ING to further mitigate the risk of financial and economic crime and risk arising from the use of other data science models across the bank.

ING’s Model Risk Management team is an energetic international team of highly qualified professionals. Currently, the Model Risk Management team consists of two validation tribes (Credit Risk and Market & Other Risks) and the Model Risk Oversight (MRO) tribe. The DSMV team is part of the MRO tribe and the new data science validation team in Poland will start as an extension of this team within the MRO tribe.
