Interagency Webinar: Applying Model Risk Management to
Current Expected Credit Losses (CECL) Models at Large Banks
Tuesday, September 3, 2019
2:00 PM – 3:00 PM Eastern Time
The FDIC, the Federal Reserve, and the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency (the Agencies) will jointly host a webinar to clarify the use of model risk management by large institutions for model-based processes employed in their CECL frameworks. The webinar is scheduled for Tuesday, September 3, 2019, at 2:00 p.m. Eastern Daylight Time.
Highlights:
- This webinar will address key aspects of model risk management practices for model-based processes used in large banks’ CECL frameworks. It is targeted to institutions with at least $50 billion in total assets; however, all institutions are welcome to participate.
- The Agencies recognize that models may be used to varying degrees for CECL. Consistent with safety and soundness standards, institutions should exercise sound risk management practices over all aspects of their CECL frameworks, including models. These frameworks should be appropriate for the size and complexity of institutions.
- Bankers are encouraged to invite representatives from functional areas within their institutions who are involved in the implementation of the new credit losses accounting standard to participate in the webinar.
