About Gentleharborview
Gentleharborview was founded to bring clarity and discipline to financial risk assessment. We serve mid-market and institutional clients with pragmatic analysis that supports both strategic planning and operational resilience. Our work emphasises measurable outcomes: clear exposure metrics, prioritised remediation plans, and governance recommendations that executives and boards can implement with confidence. We combine domain expertise in market, credit, liquidity, and operational risk with modern modelling techniques and hands-on engagement to produce results that are useful in practice and defensible under review.
Our team and expertise
Gentleharborview's team combines risk managers, quantitative analysts, and governance specialists who have worked across banks, asset managers, and regulated corporates. Our analysts have experience building and validating probabilistic models, conducting scenario and sensitivity analysis, and designing control frameworks. We prioritise clear communication: technical outputs are translated into executive summaries, risk heat maps, and implementation roadmaps so decision makers can act quickly. Team composition is tailored to each engagement so that sector-specific expertise complements core risk methodology. Rather than one-size-fits-all reports, we deliver targeted deliverables that align with your organisational structure and regulatory environment.
Senior leadership
Practitioners with oversight experience in enterprise risk programmes and capital modelling.
Quantitative analysts
Model development, backtesting, and stress scenario construction for robust exposure estimates.
Controls & assurance
Operational reviews, control testing, and resilience planning to reduce loss and disruption risk.
How we approach financial risk assessment
Our approach starts with context. We identify business drivers and constraints, then map the risk landscape across market, credit, liquidity, and operational domains. Quantitative analysis uses probabilistic models, Value at Risk measures, and liquidity stress tests to quantify potential impacts under a range of plausible scenarios. Parallel qualitative activities include scenario workshops, governance reviews, and interviews with process owners to uncover behavioural and process risks that numbers alone may not reveal. Outputs include a ranked risk register, heat maps, recommended controls, and a prioritized remediation plan. We work collaboratively with stakeholders to align mitigation strategies to risk appetite, capital objectives, and regulatory demands. Each engagement is structured to hand over reproducible models, clear documentation of assumptions, and a measurable monitoring framework so outcomes remain actionable and auditable over time.
