How are banks adapting governance structures to ensure responsible AI deployment?

Tuesday, March 11, 2025

15:00-16:00 GMT / 11:00-12:00 EDT

Virtual Roundtable

Summary

Scaling Generative AI use cases across banking comes with the underlying challenge to address the complexity and “black-box” nature of models, whilst maintaining the robust oversight and controls standards set over years of dealing with technology risk.

To prevent risk management and governance becoming a blocker to innovation, leading banks are proactively adapting their People, Policies and Process to ensure they deploy AI models and systems responsibly.

Our recent RAI Roundtable offered a unique opportunity to learn about the practical measures taken by subject matter experts from some of the world’s leading banks to ensure RAI supports, not stifles, innovation.

This event focused on the updated 2024 Evident AI RAI Report.
