AI Roundtable: Agentic AI in Fintech - Building Trust, Control and Safe Acceleration
Event Overview
Agentic AI is moving from concept to reality across fintech platforms, introducing new ways for systems to act, decide and interact without constant human guidance. This shift brings significant opportunity but also creates a new risk surface that traditional controls were never designed to handle.
Fintech firms are feeling the pressure. While AI enabled tools promise faster workflows, better customer experiences and more intelligent automation, they also raise challenges around transparency, third party exposure, regulatory expectations and operational integrity. The growing presence of AI embedded within vendor products adds further complexity, often without clear disclosure or governance.
This roundtable will bring together senior leaders from financial services and industry bodies to explore how agentic AI is reshaping risk, accountability and assurance. We will look at what firms are encountering today, the emerging gaps in existing frameworks, and the practical steps needed to move from experimentation to safe and confident adoption.
What the session will cover
• How agentic AI behaves differently from traditional systems and why this matters for governance
• The rising impact of third party AI on fintech risk and resilience
• What CRO, CTO, risk and product teams need to consider as AI begins to take actions, call tools and interact with systems
• Visibility gaps created by shadow AI across product, data and engineering teams
• Practical approaches for risk scoring, permissioning, oversight and kill switch design
• How the industry can move toward consistent standards for managing agentic AI safely
Who this session is for
Leaders in risk, technology, operations, data, digital, third party oversight and innovation who are exploring how agentic AI will influence their organisation’s operating model and control environment.
