The regulatory acceptance procedure for the authorization of internal models within the framework of determining regulatory capital requirements is associated with extensive documentation and comprehensive company audits. This results in additional coordination and resource requirements at banks which are committed to ensuring an efficient and successful acceptance procedure. zeb/ provides banks with targeted guidance through the acceptance process on the basis of its many years of project expertise, thereby minimizing the regulatory restrictions.
zeb/ has gained expertise in over forty Basle II implementation projects to date, plus ten preliminary and main acceptance projects. It therefore has the professional and methodical know-how to ensure an efficient acceptance process. If required, we can provide an experienced acceptance team which is supplemented when specific Basle II-related and technical issues arise by additional zeb/ experts. Our tried-and-tested model consists of four modules which – depending on your individual requirements – can be used individually or in combination with each other:
- Preparation for acceptance: we draft an acceptance schedule with your assistance and perform a gap analysis on existing Basel II documentation.
- Submission of the formal application: the necessary documents are compiled in a structured format for submission to the regulatory authority.
- Support in the company audit: we help you with the organizational aspects of the regulatory audit to ensure that you can answer the auditors' questions to their satisfaction.
- Compliance with requirements: we help you in the structuring and planning of, and the timely compliance with all requirements.
