OSFI and GRI’s Groundbreaking Report on AI in Finance
The Office of the Superintendent of Financial Institutions (OSFI) and the Global Risk Institute (GRI) have joined forces to produce a report that investigates the ethical, legal, and financial implications of artificial intelligence (AI) in financial services institutions. This collaborative effort has given birth to the Financial Industry Forum on Artificial Intelligence (FIFAI), uniting Canada’s financial services experts from industry, government, and academia to discuss AI applications.
- FIFAI aims to adapt AI risk management frameworks for the rapidly growing digitalization of financial services.
- The EDGE principles were developed to guide responsible AI use in finance.
- Explainability, Data, Governance, and Ethics are the four guiding principles.
- The report serves as a vital resource for the Canadian financial industry to leverage AI technology responsibly.
