ValidMind, the leading platform for model risk management and AI governance, is proud to announce that Jan Larsen has joined the company as Chief Revenue Officer (CRO). Larsen, who previously served on ValidMind’s Advisory Board, brings a distinguished track record in capital markets, credit, model development, and enterprise risk solutions to the company’s leadership team.

Larsen was formerly the President and Head of CRISIL Integral IQ (formerly Global Research & Risk Solutions), where he led enterprise-wide efforts to deliver cutting-edge analytics and risk solutions to financial institutions globally. His appointment marks a strategic move for ValidMind as the company scales to meet the growing demand for technology-driven risk management solutions across banking, insurance, and asset management.

“I got a demo of the ValidMind platform and was immediately impressed,” said Larsen. “Model validation is a huge cost driver for financial institutions. ValidMind’s AI-native solution addresses this challenge head-on by making validation more objective, consistent, and less error-prone—while significantly reducing both cost and risk.”

Larsen’s decision to move from the Advisory Board to a full-time executive role reflects his strong conviction in ValidMind’s mission to modernize how financial institutions govern and validate risk and AI models.

“The traditional paradigm of annual model reviews just doesn’t cut it anymore,” Larsen explained. “With AI accelerating the model development cycle, institutions need continuous validation capabilities to manage risk effectively. ValidMind is the tech-forward solution that enables this new reality.”

Larsen also highlighted the growing relevance of model risk management outside of traditional banking. “As businesses of all types accelerate deployment of AI to automate and improve their operations, AI governance and model risk management will become a core function spanning across all industries,” he noted. “The need for streamlined and automated solutions to enable these critical activities has never been more acute.”

As CRO, Larsen will lead ValidMind’s global revenue strategy, working closely with the go-to-market, product, and customer success teams to deliver scalable value to clients navigating the evolving regulatory and risk landscape.

“Jan’s leadership and depth of experience in risk and analytics are invaluable as we expand our footprint,” said Jonas Jacobi, CEO of ValidMind. “His vision for a faster, smarter, and safer model validation lifecycle aligns perfectly with our mission. We’re thrilled to welcome him to the executive team.”
