Abstract

The article examines modern approaches to the organization of the risk management process in Ukrainian banks. Requirements for modeling banking risks are growing in modern conditions. Recent financial and economic crises have demonstrated the devastating effects of unforeseen risks. The dynamic development of banking technologies and products requires a detailed analysis of the possible consequences of their implementation. Contingency losses require a probabilistic study. The buffer for the absorption of these losses is the capital of the bank. Losses from anticipated risks include the creation of reserves. The basis of modern approaches to risk modeling is the recommendations of the Basel Committee on Banking Supervision. The National Bank of Ukraine clearly regulates the requirements for the organization of risk management systems, but does not interfere in the construction of models. Banks develop internal policies, procedures and risk management models independently. In recent years, domestic banks have made significant progress in modeling and stress testing of risks. Each bank carries out a comprehensive assessment of at least the following significant types of risks: credit risk, liquidity risk, interest rate risk of the banking book, market risk, operational risk, compliance risk, and other significant types of risks. The issue of validation of risk assessment models by external experts is very relevant. Such specialists may be scientists who conduct research in the field of finance, banking and economic and mathematical methods of modeling complex systems. The interaction of scientists and practitioners has a double effect. Scholars are able to provide useful advice on the features of models and tools for assessing risks, systemic risks and financial stability of the banking sector at the macro level. Specific models of banks lay the foundations for current research topics of teachers and graduates. The authors of the article share the experience of model validation, analyze the current state of the banking system and the risk profile of domestic banks. Bank reporting data are considered in the dynamics and analyzed in terms of specific risks. The obtained conclusions are compared with the Risk Map of banks of the National Bank of Ukraine.
