Agentic AI in regulated industries - Learnings from Generative AI applications in Fintech

Financial services have moved from GenAI experimentation to production-grade agentic systems reshaping how regulated enterprises operate. This session traces the evolution of AI maturity in FSI—from early LLM pilots to autonomous agents driving measurable business value across compliance, capital markets, and customer operations. We'll examine where agentic workloads are delivering returns today, walk through a reference architecture for compliance automation, and tackle the harder questions: How do you govern agents in a regulated environment? Who's accountable when an agent acts? Attendees will leave with a practical framework for deploying agentic AI without compromising the controls regulators expect.
