Principal Analyst, Capital Markets and Risk - Model Architecture

The Liquidity Risk Management (LRM) team, within Capital One's Capital Markets and Analytics (CMA) organization, is responsible for identifying, measuring and managing the company's liquidity risk in accordance with applicable regulations and within our Board approved risk appetite levels. The team utilizes several key liquidity frameworks designed to appropriately analyze and manage the short and long-term liquidity risk across the firm. These frameworks are driven by both internal and regulatory considerations, including Capital One's internal stress tests, the Holding Company's Liquidity position, Liquidity Coverage Ratio (LCR), Net Stable Funding Ratio (NSFR), and Capital One's Contingency Funding Plan. These frameworks are key drivers in shaping the size and composition of the company's liquidity buffer, as well as influencing the funding profile and strategic investments.
