Background

We are looking for a committed and collaborative team player, who loves learning more about balance sheet risk management to strengthen our Financial Risk Functional Development team. ING Bank wants to roll out one standard implementation for Interest Rate Risk and Forecasting in our banking books. Regulations and internal risk management insights require us to enhance our ALM capabilities to be implemented consistently throughout ING Bank. We are a team that develops new functionality and methodologies for risk management in one target platform (QRM). Our team looks to find the right balance between conceptual risk management and practical implementation solutions.

 

Our objective is to enhance the “ING standard” configuration for the QRM roll-out in all locations ING operates in, such that it enables us to report and calculate the core Risk figures in QRM (NII- and NPV-@risk).

What you will do

Development of IRRBB measures, implementation of target behavioral models, IRRBB scenarios and hedging replication:

  • analyse risk measurement figures and methods.

  • analyse configuration fit and gaps on new functionality (either from IRRBB or Rolling forecast).

  • investigate remediating actions to close gaps.

  • coordinate resulting data required functional transformations.

  • the end criterion is that output figures for reporting are covered in full and signed off by the users.

  • develop new functionality in our target model, such as replication processes and new behavioural models.
