The Bank’s flexible work model supports balancing the demands of work and life, while prioritizing the value of connecting and collaborating with our colleagues in person. Employees are expected to live within a commutable distance of their primary work location to support team collaboration.
What we do:
The Supervision Group of the Federal Reserve Bank of New York (FRBNY) supervises financial institutions located in the Second District. The objectives of Supervision are to:
Evaluate and promote the overall safety and soundness of supervised institutions
Ensure supervised institutions’ compliance with relevant laws and regulations
Facilitate the stability of the financial system of the United States
Support the growth and stability of the U.S. economy.
Supervision is carried out through a combination of methods, including on-site and off-site examinations involving staff dedicated to the supervision of an individual firm and other professionals focused on analytical, policy, and risk matters. Supervision is coordinated with other U.S. agencies.
The New York Stress Testing (NYST) Department within the Supervisory Policy and Strategy function is a key contributor to the Federal Reserve System’s annual supervisory stress test, which assesses whether bank holding companies and U.S. intermediate holding companies with $100 billion or more in total consolidated assets are sufficiently capitalized to absorb losses during a hypothetical stress scenario. NYST leads scenario design for the global market shock (GMS) component of the stress test, which is applied to firms with significant trading or custodial operations. In addition, NYST develops, executes, and performs ongoing monitoring of models that estimate GMS related losses and firms’ overall post-stress capital levels.

As a Risk Modeling and Analytics Specialist, you will apply advanced statistical methods to develop, improve, and implement models used in the design of the GMS scenarios.
