This work defines predictive risk and compliance automation for multi-counterparty financial data platforms and reviews the relevance of deep learning models in this context. Predictive risk models face three principal challenges: a scarcity of historical examples of adverse events, limited availability of temporal sequences capturing large negative macroeconomic shocks, and the need to predict low-probability, high-impact events in order to satisfy regulatory and operational resilience requirements. The choice of learning paradigm and model architecture strongly influences the coverage, generalisation, and predictive capability for extreme but consequential events. Supervised methods aim to produce predictive models that generate risk signal estimates, while unsupervised approaches focus on identifying and characterising salient patterns within the data. Multi-counterparty financial data platforms enable the ingestion, integration, harmonisation, storage, and exposure of data generated by the various counterparties participating in a financial ecosystem.
The architecture of such a platform is outlined, with particular attention to the components responsible for ingesting and harmonising data from different counterparties. The paper also discusses the definition of a risk and compliance ontology, and the semantic alignment of these two ontologies across the data ecosystem. This ontology may encompass both a taxonomy of risk signals and a mapping of those signals to fundamental regulatory concepts in risk and compliance, as defined by local and global financial regulators.
