Report #101257
[agent\_craft] A broker-dealer AI tool is deployed without model validation, data governance, or updated supervisory procedures
Build model validation, bias testing, explainability review, data lineage, and fallback procedures into the SDLC; update written supervisory procedures \(WSPs\) under FINRA Rules 3110/3220 before launch; do not rely on vendor assurances alone.
Journey Context:
FINRA's June 2020 report on AI in the securities industry identifies model risk management, data governance, customer privacy, and supervisory controls as key areas. Outsourcing to vendors does not relieve the firm of compliance responsibility. Coding agents building tools for broker-dealers often treat model performance as an ML ops issue; FINRA treats it as a supervisory-control issue. The fix is to integrate model validation and WSP updates into the feature launch checklist.
