They cover governance and oversight, identification and inventories, risk materiality assessments, AI lifecycle controls, third-party AI, and organizational capabilities and infrastructure.<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><br \/>\n<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Implementation will be phased, with governance and core risk-management requirements taking effect from October 7, 2027, followed by lifecycle controls and capability requirements from October 7, 2028.<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><br \/>\n<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>Context:<br \/>\n<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">MAS consulted on the proposed Guidelines in November 2025 against the backdrop of increasing scale and sophistication of AI adoption in financial services. Since then, international regulatory bodies, including the Financial Stability Board, have also been developing approaches to responsible AI adoption in the financial sector.<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><br \/>\n<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Respondents broadly supported MAS&#8217; proposed principles-based and risk-proportionate approach but sought greater clarity on areas including the use of existing governance structures, treatment of embedded and third-party AI, and the extent of governance required for lower-risk AI use.<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><br \/>\n<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The final Guidelines retain the overall approach proposed in the consultation while providing additional flexibility and clarification in these areas. They complement, rather than replace, existing MAS requirements and guidance, including the FEAT principles and technology risk-management expectations.<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><br \/>\n<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>Key takeaways<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">:<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><b>Risk-proportionate approach<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">: FIs should calibrate their governance and controls according to the nature, scale and materiality of their AI use. Basic AI governance policies and procedures may be sufficient where AI failure or unavailability is unlikely to have a material adverse impact on the FI, its customers or other stakeholders.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><b>Board and senior management oversight<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">: Boards and senior management remain responsible for ensuring appropriate oversight, risk appetite, accountability and resources for AI risk management. MAS does not require a dedicated AI committee; existing governance structures may be used where they provide adequate oversight and cross-functional coordination.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><b>Identification and inventories<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">: FIs should establish processes to identify AI use and maintain inventories at an appropriate level of granularity. Inventories may build on existing model, technology, data or third-party inventories rather than requiring a standalone AI inventory.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><b>Risk materiality<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">: Individual AI use cases should be assessed according to factors including their potential impact, complexity and reliance, with more stringent controls applied to higher-risk applications.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><b>Lifecycle controls<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">: Expectations cover data governance, transparency and explainability, fairness, human oversight, evaluation and testing, cybersecurity, independent pre-deployment review, ongoing monitoring, incident management and change management.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><b>Third-party and embedded AI<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">: FIs remain accountable for AI used in the services they provide even where it is developed or operated by a third party. MAS expects appropriate assurance, testing, contractual arrangements and monitoring, with compensating controls where providers cannot provide sufficient transparency.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><b>Generative and agentic AI<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">: The Guidelines explicitly address risks associated with generative AI and increasingly autonomous AI agents, including hallucinations, data leakage, cyber threats, automation bias and the potential for agents with access to tools to take unintended actions. MAS intends to consult the industry in 2027 on whether further guidance for agentic AI is required.<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><br \/>\n<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><b>Next steps<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">:<br \/>\n<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The Guidelines will be implemented in phases. From October 7, 2027, MAS&#8217; expectations relating to AI oversight and core risk-management systems, policies and procedures, including AI identification, inventories and risk-materiality assessments, will apply.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">From October 7, 2028, requirements relating to AI lifecycle controls, organizational capabilities and technology infrastructure will apply.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">MAS has indicated that the framework may be updated or supplemented as AI technology and associated risks evolve. MAS also plans further industry engagement on agentic AI in 2027.<\/span><\/p>\n\n<\/div>\n<div\n    class=\"bbg-spacer bbg-spacer--sm\"\n    >\n<\/div><div\n\tclass=\"bb-wysiwyg\"\n\t\t>\n\t<h2>Dubai: VARA sets minimum audit scope for VASP Reserve Assets<\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Dubai\u2019s Virtual Assets Regulatory Authority (VARA) has <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/media.umbraco.io\/dwtc\/p1zdm1ig\/circular-regarding-reserve-assets-audit-report.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">issued<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> a circular setting out its minimum regulatory expectations for the independent audit of Reserve Assets held by Virtual Asset Service Providers (VASPs).
