Asset Liability Model Validation
Asset liability (A-L) model validation is an essential component of credit union risk management and reporting. It is an evaluation process in which every aspect of a credit union’s A-L model is compared against current methodology, described as “best practices.” The information gained from validation helps credit unions determine if their A-L process is adequately capturing the full measure of Interest Rate Risk (IRR) on the balance sheet. If true risk is not measured against an appropriate model, decision-making regarding risk will suffer, as will performance.
A-L model validation assures credit union CEOs, CFOs, asset liability committee (ALCO) members, and other credit union leaders that the IRR measurement process accurately displays the IRR exposure of their credit union. It enables them to identify where investment IRR measurements may not fully capture true risk. These areas include modeling assumptions, account setup, and reporting practices. In addition, validation ensures compliance with NCUA and other financial institution regulations.
