Lesson 5 of 5

Building AI governance in a lender: roles, risk tiers, human oversight and reporting

Governance turns principles into decisions: who in a lender answers for AI, how each use is placed in a risk tier, what makes human oversight real rather than a formality, and what the board, staff and customers are told. The Basel Committee's principles for bank governance and ASEAN's guide on AI give the frame.
