Overview
Overview:
Comprehensive Capital Analysis & Review (CCAR) is a Federal Reserve requirement to perform stress testing to demonstrate banks have sufficient capital to withstand a severe economic stress event; results of the CCAR process inform firm’s ability to take capital actions such as paying dividends and share repurchases. Current Expected Credit Losses (CECL) is an approach used to calculate loan loss reserves reported on firm’s SEC financial statements (e.g., 10K, 10Q). CCAR Tech Team implements and executes CCAR and CECL financial analytics models covering forecasting (Balance Sheet, Macroeconomic Factors, Expense and Fee Revenue, etc.) and calculation (Market & Credit Risks, Risk Weighted Assets, Stress Capital Buffer Ratio, etc.) using analytics platform (compute cluster, GPU cluster, Spark/Hadoop, JupyterHub, Machine Learning(ML) toolkits, REST API, Micro-Services).
