The Financial Stability Oversight Council’s 2023 annual report, released on 14 December 2023, identified the use of AI in financial services as a vulnerability in the US financial system. It warned that AI systems with explainability problems could produce and mask biased or inaccurate results, including in lending, and urged firms and regulators to build expertise to monitor AI use. Treasury Secretary Janet Yellen told the council’s meeting that it had specifically identified AI as a vulnerability that year.

Why it matters

US financial regulators put AI on their list of system-wide risks, and the council held a conference on AI and financial stability with the Brookings Institution in June 2024.
