AI Assurance Services

In AI We Trust makes the case for a new FCC model - one where human judgement is elevated, not side-lined, and where trust isn't an afterthought. We design with trust, verification, explainability, and meaningful human oversight from the very start, ensuring systems are resilient, transparent, and built for the real world. 
AI in financial crime and fraud prevention has become a strategic priority for firms, driven largely by the transformative opportunities unlocked by AI, which present compelling benefits in terms of increased operational efficiency and more effective risk management. 

The Artificial  Intelligence and Machine Learning Survey from the Bank of England and FCA last November found the highest perceived current benefits are in data and analytical insights, anti-money laundering (AML) and combating fraud, and cybersecurity. The areas with the largest expected increase in benefits over the next three years are operational efficiency, productivity, and cost base.

However, the same report found 75% of firms are already using AI — yet only 34% fully understand how it works. The risks that are expected to increase the most over the next three years are third-party dependencies, model complexity, and embedded or ‘hidden’ models.
