Agencies Revise Interagency Model Risk Management Guidance
Summary
The FDIC, OCC, and Federal Reserve Board jointly issued revised interagency model risk management guidance and rescinded the existing guidance on the same topic. The revision applies to all FDIC-supervised financial institutions and reflects updated supervisory expectations for model risk governance, model validation, and model inventory practices.
What changed
The three federal banking agencies revised the interagency guidance on model risk management, replacing the prior version with updated supervisory expectations. The agencies simultaneously rescinded the existing guidance, meaning institutions must now align with the revised standards.
FDIC-supervised financial institutions should review their model risk management frameworks, including model inventory, validation, and governance processes, to ensure alignment with the updated interagency expectations. Institutions that relied on the prior guidance for compliance purposes should update internal policies accordingly.
