The primary role of an analyst is to monitor and to analyse credit risks for all local public sector assets within the portfolio, in line with the strategies defined by the Risk Management dept and in collaboration with all other departments of the bank.
Tasks:
Desired profile :
Among the main responsibilities of RMQD are:
- Developing, backtesting and stresstesting of quantitative credit risk models (e.g. probability of default), in the context of IFRS 9 provisioning and for internal risk assessment, for all asset classes in the Dexia portfolio.
- The annual production of the internal capital assessment (ICAAP) covering all risk types. Full production of the credit risk assessment via portfolio risk models. Transversal responsibility with other teams to collect input for other risk types (market risk, operational risk, climate risk, …) and to integrate all risks in the final overall risk assessment.
- Developing and backtesting of models translating forward looking macro-economic scenarios into credit risk impacts.
- Strategic planning and capital projection under different scenarios for the full Dexia portfolio, taking into account economic and regulatory constraints, and considering specific risks at portfolio level such as correlation and concentration risk.
The position involves state-of-the-art modelling and data science for active risk management. This is a perfect first experience in quantitative risk management, in a multicultural environment within a highly motivated team.
University degree with a strong quantitative orientation (mathematics, commercial engineering, physics, statistics, data science).
Strong programming skills are required.
Within the Risk Department, you will work in the RMQD (Risk Models, Quantification and Defaults) team. The RMQD team is responsible for the development and use of all quantitative credit risk models, both at counterparty and portfolio level. The development is based on advanced statistical and mathematical modelling. The models are used by the RMQD team itself for key regulatory and strategic exercises, ranging from quarterly IFRS9 expected credit loss calculations, projections of the key risk measures in the financial plan, stress testing and the integrated ICAAP file of the bank. More specifically, the projects cover:
• The development, maintenance and backtesting of the internal credit risk models, which are used for analyzing the counterparty-level credit risk in the Dexia Portfolio. This implies the construction of rating migration, PD and LGD models, covering the whole process from data collection & treatment, discrimination analysis and calibration of the risk levels up to implementation (both long-term Through-The- Cycle and Point-In-Time macro-economic models). • The calibration of the parameters of the internally developed portfolio management tool which assesses the portfolio tail risk (Credit Value-at-Risk, VaR). These include a.o. the calibration of stochastic PD and LGD, the asset correlation structure and global maintenance/updates of the portfolio management tool to reflect the portfolio’s risk dynamics. • The production of strategic long-term and/or stress test results for top management. The RMQD team assists in the development of the different base and stress scenarios and is responsible for the calculation of all credit risk impacts (a.o. losses in case of default, IFRS9 provisions, risk-weighted assets). On other risks (such as operational and market risk) the RMQD team is responsible for the collection and aggregation of the relevant results from the other Risk teams in order to produce the global risk view across the bank and its entities under all base and stress scenarios. • The development and follow-up of the credit risk indicators within Dexia’s Risk Appetite Framework.
All the above mentioned models and tools are built and maintained within RMQD inside the Matlab environment, while the data treatment is mainly based on SQL.
• You hold a University degree with a quantitative and/or financial background (business/financial engineer, civil engineer, physicist,mathematician, etc.).• You speak english, french and dutch. • You have at least 3 years of experience in risk quantification and/or Credit risk in a bank or financial institution, or have an equivalentworking experience, such as a PhD in your domain.• You have a good knowledge on statistics/mathematics, as well as in financial products & markets and/or credit risk, or are willing to investin the latter.• You are comfortable with programming/model development in Maltab (or equivalent tools like Python) and SQL.• You are able to push the team forward and contribute to the team dynamics, while at the same time being able to work on an individualbasis.• You are able to focus on finding effective solutions that are applicable for Dexia’s business, in a changing economic and regulatoryenvironment.
The post holder will be tasked with analysing and improving market risk indicators in order to render an appropriate image of the risk profile of Dexia Crédit Local and the Dexia Group.
The post holder will be responsible for all or part of the following tasks:
