A model validation team identifies 'unexplained conservatism' in a new credit scoring model.

According to Model Risk Management (MRM) best practices, why is this conservatism considered a risk rather than a safety feature?

  1. It makes the model 'un-elicitable' under the Pinball loss function.
  2. It increases the likelihood of Type II errors in backtesting.
  3. It violates the principle of 'independence' between the first and second lines.
  4. It distorts business decisions like pricing and capital allocation in hidden ways.
