Innovation vs Regulation - Navigating Technology in Financial Services

Introduction

How can financial services firms embrace new technology while managing legal and regulatory risk? And how can good governance support innovation rather than simply constrain it?

Using AI and automation as practical examples, this bitesize webinar will explore how to assess opportunities, ask the right regulatory questions and identify proportionate safeguards. A short case study will illustrate the decisions involved in moving from a promising idea to a controlled pilot.

You will leave with practical questions to help you evaluate technology proposals, advise colleagues and support informed adoption decisions.
