Risk, compliance, and governance teams are under pressure from rising complexity, expanding regulation, and growing expectations around documentation, interpretation, and oversight. Generative AI will help with monitoring, summarisation, drafting, and research, but only when used with stronger professional discipline.
This workshop gives participants a structured way to understand where AI adds value, where human judgement must remain central, and how workflows can be strengthened without losing accountability or control.
It is a practical foundation workshop where generative AI can support monitoring, interpretation, drafting, review, and oversight work across risk, compliance, and governance functions without weakening accountability.
Participants will leave with:
Participants will be able to:
09:00 - 10:00: The AI shift and your role in it.Participants understand what is changing with AI, why it matters for financial services, and how risk, compliance, governance and control professionals can be part of the transformation.
10:00 - 11:30: How AI is transforming risk, compliance and governance.Participants explore use-case areas showing how AI can support regulatory updates, obligation mapping, governance reporting, risk appetite commentary, control evidence and AI governance work. Includes short workflow reflection exercises.
11:30 - 11:45: BreakShort break
11:45 - 12:30: Risks, limits and responsibilities.Participants examine the risks of AI in control-function work, including weak evidence, hallucination, confidentiality, over-reliance, unclear accountability and inappropriate delegation of judgement.
12:30 - 13:30: LunchLunch break
13:30 - 14:30: AI in action: from control-function work to AI capability.Participants see how AI capabilities such as summarising, extracting, comparing, drafting, reviewing and challenging can improve real control-function tasks when used with judgement.
14:30 - 15:30: Workflow clinic. Participants work in peer groups on a recurring task or workflow relevant to their role. They identify how AI could improve productivity, quality or consistency, and what controls would be needed.
15:30 - 16:00: AI Readiness Action Brief.Participants complete a one-page brief: one workflow, one AI opportunity, one productivity or quality benefit, one control question and one next conversation to take back to their organisation.
