ALM Validation
Overview
Asset-Liability Management (ALM) validations assure credit union CEOs, CFOs, ALCO and board members, and other credit union leaders that interest rate risk measurement processes accurately display the risk exposures of their credit union. It enables them to identify gaps in which ALM measurement and reporting may not fully capture true risk, and further ensures compliance with NCUA and other financial institution regulations.
Does your credit union need an ALM Validation?
QuantyPhi's whitepaper presents various scenarios of when your credit union would benefit from an independent, third-party ALM validation, and explains the specific benefits of partnering with a balance sheet CUSO to obtain one.
Each of QuantyPhi's ALM validations are unique based on your balance sheet, parameters set forth in your ALM or interest rate risk policies, and methods of assumption setting and results reporting. During the validation, our highly trained team will review your credit union’s ALM program, pinpoint areas that are not currently optimized for overall peak performance, suggest methods and practices to help improve your credit union’s ALM process, and help you implement any desired changes.
QuantyPhi’s goal is to help you evaluate the IRR on your balance sheet and provide you with insights on how to improve your credit union’s performance and pass your exams with ease and confidence.
