After leaving the mathematical department at the KULeuven University I specialized myself fir 5 years in credit risk models (PD,EAD,LGD,portfolio model) at KBC Bank NV, this in the context of the Basel II project. Currently I take part in the Solvency II project at Euler Hermes, being responsible for the methodological part of the credit insurance risk model. The perfect job for me is the one with some pioneer work/ongoing development where my strong analytic thinking can give some added value. I really enjoy team work. Specialties: Current specialties: Statistics / mathematics, credit risk modelling / Basel II & Solvency II, SAS/Matlab programming, ...
I am responsible for the methodology and calibration of the Euler Hermes portfolio model for credit insurance risk. This is an important part of the Solvency II project of EH, i.e. in the context of Pillar I required capital calculations, risk based pricing, etc.
In Euler Hermes Europe I am responsible for Pillar I issues in the Solvency II project. This concerns both internal model and 'Solvency II standard model' calculations for all kind of risks, interpretation of the results and some parameter settings (PD, EAD, LGD).
In KBC Bank I worked in a modelling team dealing with the design and follow up of credit risk models (PD,EAD,LGD). The project was related to the application for Basel II Internal Rating Based (Advanced).
Mathematical research in the same area as my PhD.
