Reducing Model Risk Using Coding Standards

by Jonathan Leonardelli, FRM | Oct 1, 2025 | Model Development

This blog series explores how applying a set of coding best practices can help reduce errors during model development. We’ve captured these practices in the acronym MATHS: Modularized, Archived, Tested, Honed, and Standardized. This post focuses on the Standardized...

Reducing Model Risk by Honing Code

by Jonathan Leonardelli, FRM | Sep 24, 2025 | Model Development

In this blog of FRG’s blog series on coding best practices to reduce model risk during model development, we focus on the Honed element of MATHS. To hone a process, skill, or ability, means to make it “perfect or completely suitable for its purpose.” That is the focus...
