Artificial intelligence is rapidly transforming the financial services sector. Firms are increasingly deploying AI across customer-facing functions, financial crime controls, trading activities, operational processes and risk management frameworks. At the same time, regulators on both sides of the Atlantic are intensifying their focus on AI governance, accountability, consumer outcomes and operational resilience.
Topics We Will Cover
- The FCA's principles-based approach to AI regulation.
- AI governance, accountability and the SM&CR.
- Consumer Duty implications for AI-driven decision-making.
- Enforcement risks including bias, explainability and third-party AI.
- The FCA's own use of AI in supervision and enforcement.
- US regulatory and enforcement developments relating to AI.
- Practical steps to strengthen AI governance and resilience.
As AI becomes embedded in core financial services activities, regulators are increasingly focused on how firms govern, monitor and oversee these technologies. This webinar will provide a practical transatlantic assessment of the key legal, regulatory and enforcement risks associated with AI deployment in financial services, together with actionable guidance on developing governance frameworks capable of withstanding regulatory scrutiny.
Participants will have the opportunity to contribute questions online. This program is being planned with the intention to offer CLE credit to attendees who join the live webinar.
