Where financial services teams get stuck

The AI challenges specific to your sector.

01

Regulatory compliance with AI — MiFID II, DORA, EU AI Act

Using AI in client-facing decisions, trading support, or risk modelling introduces explainability and documentation obligations that most teams aren't prepared for. The EU AI Act classifies many financial AI use cases as high-risk — requiring conformity assessments, audit trails, and human oversight mechanisms. Most teams are experimenting with tools without understanding where the regulatory boundaries actually fall.

02

Automating back-office while managing operational risk

Back-office functions — KYC document processing, compliance reporting, reconciliation, contract review — are high-volume and well-suited to AI automation. But the risk of hallucination or data leakage in these contexts is not theoretical. DORA's operational resilience requirements mean AI tools used in operational processes need to meet standards that most off-the-shelf tools don't document clearly.

03

Building AI fluency without breaching data governance

Front-office and middle-office staff want to use AI tools, but data classification policies, client confidentiality obligations, and uncertainty about what's permissible create a culture of avoidance. The result: individuals use personal accounts and unvetted tools rather than working within approved systems — which creates the exact governance risk that policies were designed to prevent.

Regulatory context: what you need to know in 2026

Every AI programme we run in financial services is designed with your compliance obligations in mind. We work within the frameworks your teams operate under — and help you understand exactly where AI use creates regulatory exposure and where it does not.
