Col will discuss a key issue in financial modelling: the reliance on trust rather than systematic validation of the model. Complex models are often deemed reliable based on the word of their author, with few compliance measures in place to confirm their accuracy.

Verbalising the risks within a complex model, especially when it involves a tangled structure and constantly shifting numbers, is exceedingly difficult. This complexity can make pinpointing and explaining potential weak points extremely challenging, even for seasoned professionals.

To address this, Col has developed a solution that enables organisations to independently assess and validate models. Through structured self-assessment tools, risk overlays, PerfectXL tools, and self-repair guidance, this system provides a comprehensive, accessible framework.
