Designed for risk, compliance, legal, model governance, technology, and operations leaders, this hands-on workshop introduces the FINOS AI Governance Framework (AIGF) as a practical standard for identifying, assessing, and mitigating AI risks in financial services.

Through real-world use cases participants will learn how to use the AIGF to strengthen controls, improve auditability, and align AI programs with emerging supervisory expectations. Combining concise overviews with guided exercises, the session equips business and technical attendees to embed the AIGF into existing governance processes, control frameworks, and open source strategies.
