AI Readiness · Financial services
Where does your bank, insurer, asset manager, or fintech stand on AI readiness? Our financial-services bank aligns with SR 11-7 model risk management, NYDFS 500, SOX data governance, and ECOA-adjacent fairness practice.
What we reference
Sector-specific overlays on top of the generic 35-question bank — so the findings speak the language your financial services reviewers already use.
Governance questions mirror independent validation, inventory, and performance monitoring expectations.
Vendor, incident response, and access-control questions reference this guidance where applicable.
Data-quality and lineage questions lean into SOX-grade controls, and PCI shows up in classification policy.
Fairness, transparency, and human oversight items reference the relevant AI Act articles.
Sample questions
Here’s the kind of thing you’ll answer in the financial services bank. Full assessment is 3× longer — still under 10 minutes.
Do you maintain a live model inventory with SR 11-7 classification and a designated model risk owner?
Do you perform independent model validation (second-line) before production rollout?
Do you run bias and fairness audits on models that influence credit, insurance, or treatment of customers?
These are samples. The real assessment adapts follow-ups based on your answers.
