Agentic development in regulated industries: Governance, risk, and the path forward

Financial services firms face a version of the agentic development challenge that no one else does: how do you build production infrastructure for AI agents when every change carries regulatory weight, every deployment needs an audit trail, and your risk function has legitimate concerns about autonomous systems in a trading or lending environment? Some firms are already cracking it, designing governance models that satisfy compliance without killing velocity, building explainability and traceability into the platform from day one. Others are watching the gap widen. This roundtable is for engineering and platform leaders from banking, asset management, fintech, and other regulated sectors like insurance or government, wrestling with the same tension. Come to compare notes with peers in the same environment, not to hear theory.
