This paper addresses the challenges associated with the adoption of #machinelearning (#ml) in #financialinstitutions. While ML models offer high predictive accuracy, their lack of explainability, robustness, and fairness raises concerns about their trustworthiness. Furthermore, proposed #regulations require high-risk #ai systems to meet specific #requirements. To address these gaps, the paper introduces the Key AI Risk Indicators (KAIRI) framework, tailored to the #financialservices industry. The framework maps #regulatoryrequirements from the #euaiact to four measurable principles (Sustainability, Accuracy, Fairness, Explainability). For each principle, a set of statistical metrics is proposed to #measure, #manage, and #mitigate #airisks in #finance.
This paper discusses the role of public policy in #regulating the development of #ai, #ml, and #robotics, and the potential #risks of different approaches to #governance. It explores the tension between precautionary principles that prioritize risk avoidance and permissionless innovation that encourages entrepreneurship, and advocates for a more flexible, #bottomup governance approach that can address risks without hindering innovation.
"... studies in various findings suggests a positive link between ESG and the financial performance of an organization."
"Considering the proliferation of articles in this field, and the potential for the use of ML, we propose a review of the academic literature to assess how ML is enabling climate finance to scale up. The main contribution of this paper is to provide a structure of application domains in a highly fragmented research field, aiming to spur further innovative work from ML experts."
"... an overview of how machine learning can help in categorizing textual descriptions of operational loss events into Basel II event types. We apply PYTHON implementations of support vector machine and multinomial naive Bayes algorithms to precategorized Öffentliche Schadenfälle OpRisk (ÖffSchOR) data to demonstrate that operational loss events can be automatically assigned to one of the seven Basel II event types with very few costs and satisfactory accuracy."
"By comparing the decisions output by diverse settings, we find that ML algorithms can mitigate both the preference-based bias and the belief-based bias, while the effects vary for new and repeated applicants. Based on our findings, we propose a two-step human-AI collaboration framework for practitioners to reduce decision bias most effectively."
"This paper aims to improve the ability of financial institutions to develop risk-based policies, procedures, and controls that are reasonably designed to (a) detect red flags relating to international wire transfers for the purchase of shares and (b) to investigate money laundering (ML) and terrorist financing (TF) through the trade system."
