What makes this hard
Every number in banking eventually meets someone whose job is to challenge it. Pricing, risk and regulatory reporting are less about producing an answer than about producing one that holds up when it is questioned.

- The same question answered by two teams produces two numbers, and neither reconciles with the other.
- Reporting deadlines do not move when the pipeline breaks.
