Financial services firms lag in AI governance and compliance readiness

Full Article

Financial services firms are eager to adopt artificial intelligence but lack essential governance frameworks and compliance protocols. The 2024 AI Benchmarking Survey reveals that only a small percentage of firms have established AI committees or risk management frameworks. This gap exposes firms to significant regulatory scrutiny and operational risks.

Despite 75% of firms exploring AI, many have not realized its potential benefits, particularly in compliance efficiency. Concerns about cybersecurity and regulatory uncertainties hinder AI adoption, highlighting the need for robust governance protocols. The findings emphasize the urgency for firms to develop comprehensive AI strategies to mitigate risks and enhance compliance.

• Only 32% of firms have established an AI governance group.

• 92% of firms lack policies for third-party AI use.
