On 11 September 2024, ALFI responds to the European Commission's consultation on the development and use of #artificialintelligence in the financial sector. ALFI confirms that #AI solutions, and large language model (#LLM) tools in particular, are increasingly used among asset managers. Yet, the use of AI-supported applications includes some risks. Such risks can be analysed across three categories: - Systemic risks, such as financial stability risks, market risks, liquidity risks and market integrity risks. This first class of risks, impacting the markets globally and to a large scale, have been considered of utmost relevance - Risks related to investor protection - Risks borne at individual IFM level, such as operational risk and reputational risk To further mitigate the risks, ALFI would encourage the industry to foster transparency, explainability and auditability of the data and models, as well as enhanced change management and staff training within IFM. 📃 Read the ALFI response. 👉 https://lnkd.in/eWk-5tky
