The risk model is changing. Are you?

Coding agents have quietly become one of the biggest shifts in how risk models actually get built, validated, and implemented. Not in theory. In practice — in the workflows of teams shipping IRB, IFRS 9, stress testing, economic capital, and credit scoring models right now.

On 23 June, we're bringing together senior model developers, quants, validators and lead data scientists for a working session at the ADC Amsterdam office. Over breakfast, we'll get into what these tools actually do, where they add real value, and what changes when AI sits inside the model development lifecycle.

This is the conversation you've been having in fragments with colleagues — finally in one room, with the people who are doing it.

Who this is for

Senior model developers, quantitative risk professionals, model validators and lead data scientists. The people building, validating, implementing, and maintaining the models (and the code behind them).

Whether you've already started experimenting with AI coding tools in your workflow, or you're curious to explore where they could fit, this room is for you.

What we'll get into

We'll cut through the hype and focus on where coding agents are actually delivering efficiency gains. We'll talk honestly about challenges, experiences, and risks. And we'll structure the morning around the three questions every quant is currently wrestling with. Depending on preference, we will order the topics accordingly.

1. Ways of working: where does AI coding actually add value?

• What tasks are genuinely suitable for AI — and what definitely isn't?

• Do coding agents save you time, or just shift the effort somewhere else?

• How does this change what your role looks like in 1-3 years from now?

2. Using AI coding tools: how do you get the most value out of them?

• What's out there right now, and what are the real pros and cons?

• How do you configure your agent — managing 'context' and using 'skills'?

• What does collaborative coding with AI look like in practice?

3. Riding the wave: how do you build capability across a team?

• How do you build skills and capabilities across the whole team, not just the early adopters?

• How do you handle the resistance that always comes — and create adoption that lasts?

• Are there new roles and responsibilities we need to be designing for?

What you'll take away

• A clear-eyed view of where coding agents are actually adding value in risk model work — and where the hype is getting ahead of reality.

• Practical insights on the optimal use of AI coding on individual and team level that you can implement immediately.

• Honest peer conversations with people working on exactly the same problems.
