Dean works within the Product Management team and is responsible for the development of the Scenario Generator suite of products. Dean joined Moody's in 2014 with the Advisory Services team, helping to implement bespoke solutions for clients. 

He later moved to the Modelling and Calibration Services team before joining Product Management. Dean holds a BSc in Physics from the University of Glasgow and a PhD in Particle Physics from the University of Edinburgh.

Greg Isted leads Moody's Edinburgh-based Modelling and Calibration Services team. He oversees the delivery of the standard Scenario Generator calibration services and the development of the modelling assumptions that underpin them. Since joining Moody's in 2010 following a career in academia, Greg has held a variety of Scenario Generator-based roles, all of which have had a strong focus on the calibration of stochastic models for use by insurers, pension funds, and asset managers. He holds a PhD, MRes, and BSc in Physics from the University of Liverpool.
