Responsible AI in Finance

Thu, February 16, 2023
Dinner Program
Agus Sudjianto

Mathematical models play a very prominent role in financial institutions for decision making. The use of models including Artificial Intelligence (AI) and Machine Learning (ML) carry both financial and non-financial risks. Having learned from past financial crisis experiences, banks now practice model risk management, a discipline and a process to ensure that models are developed and used responsibly including from an ethical and legal point of view. Agus Sudjianto, executive vice president, head of Model Risk, and a member of the management committee at Wells Fargo, will explore how and why responsible AI is critical in finance. 

Mr. Sudjianto’s Athenaeum presentation is co-sponsored by the Financial Economics Institute at CMC.
