Internal controls are critical processes and policies that help small businesses secure their systems and data. While often associated with large companies, small businesses have every reason to implement these controls. Statistics show that 28% of small businesses experience fraud, compared to 22-26% of larger companies. As fraud continues to rise, small businesses stand to gain significantly by integrating internal controls into their operations. Read more on our latest blog 👉 https://hubs.li/Q02HNbXy0

Artificial Intelligence (AI) has become an increasingly integral part of today’s software applications, revolutionizing fields with its capabilities in predictive analytics, personalization, decision-making, and automation. These advancements are unlocking unprecedented value across multiple industries. However, alongside this rapid adoption of AI applications, organizations face new and unique challenges in ensuring the security of these systems. Traditional IT security policies and procedures, while foundational, are no longer entirely sufficient on their own. They must be enriched to tackle the unique security demands that AI applications present. This blog post will explore why extending traditional IT security for AI applications is necessary and how model risk management (MRM) principles can be leveraged to introduce additional controls and procedures.

Bias is an intrinsic part of human decision-making. Whether it’s intentional or unintentional, there is always an element of subjectivity in our choices. Therefore, machine learning (ML) models, which are ultimately designed and trained by humans, are also prone to biases. When deployed responsibly, ML models have the potential to identify and reduce human biases. On the flip side, when biases are baked into an ML model, it can perpetuate and amplify them. For example, when U.S. courts began using an AI tool for case management and decision support, the system inaccurately predicted that black defendants posed a higher risk of being repeat offenders than they actually were. So, the question is: how do we minimize bias in machine learning models and ensure fair outcomes? Let’s dive into this blog post to find the answers!

Models play a critical role in the financial sector, guiding institutions in evaluating asset performance, forecasting future investment values, and making sound business decisions. As transactions grow in volume and complexity, and as AI and ML are increasingly adopted for advanced analytics, the risk of models producing unreliable and inaccurate outputs also rises. The cost of erroneous models can be staggering. For example, JP Morgan’s Central Investment Office experienced $6.2 billion in trading losses due to a flawed Value at Risk (VaR) model, compounded by $900 million in regulatory fines. To mitigate such risks, organizations must employ comprehensive testing, robust governance policies, and independent reviews. One effective risk mitigation framework that integrates these strategies is the Three Lines of Defense (3LoD) framework.

Third-party risk management (TPRM) has emerged as a critical area of focus. Organizations rely on a vast network of suppliers, contractors, and service providers to operate efficiently, but these relationships come with inherent risks. From data breaches to compliance violations, third-party risks can have severe consequences. Behavioral science offers valuable insights into improving TPRM by understanding and influencing human behavior. By applying principles from this field, organizations can create more effective strategies for managing third-party risks. This blog post explores how behavioral science can enhance TPRM, supported by key examples. Read more on our latest blog 👉 https://lnkd.in/e26djUwA
