New Face at the European Central Bank (ECB): Karin Turner-Hrdlicka
Karin Turner-Hrdlicka to assume responsibilities for European Central Bank oversight
Starting March 1st, Karin Turner-Hrdlicka steps into a significant position, taking over as the General Director for On-Site Inspections and Internal Model Supervision of banks directly governed by the European Central Bank (ECB). Linette Field, who currently holds this position, is bidding farewell to the ECB, as announced by the central bank on Thursday.
Getting the lowdown on Ms. Turner-Hrdlicka? The internet isn't quite spilling the beans just yet, but we'll keep our eyes peeled for more deets on her ECB journey. Meanwhile, let's shed some light on the role she's taking on. Banks employ internal models to quantify risk-weighted assets related to credit, market, and counterparty risk. In other words, they help banks get a grip on their risks and make informed decisions.
With this role, Turner-Hrdlicka will be overseeing the supervision of banks' internal models, ensuring their accuracy and effectiveness. The making of risk predictions, anyone? That's this new queenpad's cup of tea. And while she doesn't dance circles around COVID-19 vaccination outcomes[1], telemedicine interventions[2], or genome analysis[2] like some of her medical research counterparts, we sure are eager to see her strut her stuff in the world of banking!
