Model Risk Management, MRM is responsible for overseeing enterprise-wide model risk management and supporting front-line units in managing model risk. MRM provides oversight of day-to-day model risk management activities to identify, measure, monitor, and manage risk related to the design, development, and implementation and use of models. Per the Federal Reserve Supervision & Regulation guidance (SR 11-7), Model Risk Governance (MRG) provides explicit support and structure to risk management functions through policies defining relevant risk management activities, procedures that implement those policies, allocation of resources, and mechanisms for testing that policies and procedures are being carried out as specified.

MRG requires evaluation of model development and validation documentation to ensure that they are sufficiently detailed and allow parties unfamiliar with a model to understand how the model operates, as well as its limitations and key assumptions. MRG manages the operational and regulatory risks throughout a model's lifecycle. As part of the overall Model Risk Management function, MRG is a second line of defence under the Group Chief Risk Office.
