AI, Risk & Regulation: Are Financial Institutions Ready?

Rodanthy Tzani, former Head of Model Risk Management, New York Life Insurance LinkedIn profile for Rodanthy Tzani

Model risk management is evolving, but are financial institutions keeping pace? Rodanthy Tzani, an independent risk and compliance advisor, explores the challenges of AI-driven models, the confusion over definitions, and the regulatory gaps that could leave firms exposed.

Financial institutions face growing uncertainty in model risk management as AI reshapes the landscape. Rodanthy highlights the critical need for a structured governance framework that includes inventory tracking, risk assessments, and validation.

Companies struggle to define AI models, leading to confusion and potential regulatory misalignment. Without proactive risk management, cost-cutting today may lead to significant losses in the future.

Firms must integrate AI governance within existing risk frameworks, stay adaptable to evolving regulations, and ensure bias testing where necessary. Establishing a centralized function for governance is crucial to avoid silos and strengthen oversight.
