Greater Risk Analysis Needed in Buy-side Firms

Buy-side firms are facing more stringent risk requirements not just from regulations, but also from investors and clients causing risk management strategies to be re-prioritized and adjusted. Key steps to improving risk management include a greater understanding of a firm's model risk and more active running of scenario analysis and stress testing to gain better visibility into how portfolios will be impacted given potential changes in the market.
