Artificial Intelligence is rapidly reshaping the financial services industry, yet many institutions are still grappling with the challenge of translating AI ambition into tangible business value. While Generative AI and Agentic AI offer significant opportunities for risk management, questions around governance, reliability, scalability, and implementation continue to hinder widespread adoption.
This event takes a practical, practitioner-focused look at how financial institutions are using AI today, what is working in practice, and how organizations can overcome the barriers that often prevent AI initiatives from moving beyond the pilot stage.
The session will focus on:
- Current applications of AI, Generative AI, and Agentic AI in risk management, including practical use cases and implementation lessons from early adopters.
- The opportunities, barriers, and scaling challenges influencing AI adoption across financial institutions.
- How AI may reshape risk management processes, controls, and decision-making over the next five years.
- The risks, governance considerations, and key conditions for successful enterprise-wide deployment of AI solutions.
Drawing on the experience of risk leaders, technology specialists, and industry practitioners, the discussion will focus on actionable insights rather than theory. Attendees will gain a practical understanding of what it takes to implement AI effectively, manage associated risks, and create sustainable value from AI initiatives within their organizations.
