Welcome to your weekly FINOS briefing.

🎫 FINOS AI Governance Framework (GF) Training Workshop
June 24 | London & Virtual
AI Governance is no longer a theoretical exercise - it’s the prerequisite for safe, compliant production. As regulators like the FCA and the EU AI Act set higher bars for transparency, financial institutions need a practical standard for identifying and mitigating AI risk. Our AIGF Leader Training on 24 June provides exactly that: a blueprint for moving AI programs from the lab to the audit-ready stack.
