Frequently Asked Questions
Model validation specialists independently test and assess quantitative models. Work includes reviewing model methodology and assumptions, conducting independent testing and back-testing, identifying model limitations and weaknesses, and preparing validation reports for model risk committees and regulators. Coordinating with model developers and risk committees is routine here.
A degree in quantitative finance, mathematics, statistics or a related field is the standard entry requirement, with postgraduate qualifications and the CFA or FRM designation adding significant credibility. Practical experience through graduate programs also strengthens most applications considerably.
Strong quantitative and statistical skills, genuine scepticism testing model assumptions rigorously, and clear communication explaining complex technical findings to model risk committees and senior stakeholders. Genuine intellectual rigour testing assumptions also sustains a long, genuinely rewarding validation career.
Major banks employ substantial model validation teams given regulatory requirements around credit and market risk models, alongside insurers and regulatory bodies like APRA overseeing financial system model risk. Superannuation funds also employ validators assessing investment and actuarial models.
Specialists progress to senior validator and model risk manager roles, then head of model risk or chief risk officer positions. Deep quantitative expertise also supports moves into model development or quantitative research careers. Strong technical results and reputation often accelerate career progression significantly.
