- collaboration between all three lines of defence
- creation of reproducible model documentation and validation reports
- monitoring model quality evolution over time
Yields.io was founded in 2017 by Jos Gheerardyn and Sébastien Viguié, two model risk management veterans. The company is strongly backed by Volta Ventures, the leading investor for tech companies in the Benelux region and also received investments from Michel Akkermans — a business angel — and IMEC.iStart — incubator. Yields.io has an international portfolio of clients made of investment banks, insurance companies as well as regional financial institutions.
