SG connects over 80 FIs under PathFin.ai initiative

It is also developing an AI risk management handbook under Project MindForge, due later this year.

The Monetary Authority of Singapore’s (MAS) PathFin.ai programme has brought over 80 financial institutions (FIs) to share their experiences and strategies in using artificial intelligence (AI).

The PathFin.ai initiative features an initial set of successful use cases, curated by industry participants in key areas like sales and marketing, customer operations, risk management, and engineering and technology.

It also features learnings from pathfinder FIs that have successfully deployed AI in these areas.

“MAS will collaborate with our industry partners to progressively enhance the knowledge hub with more peer-validated use cases, resources and solutions,” said Chee Hong Tat, Minister for National Development and MAS deputy chairman.

MAS is also developing an AI risk management handbook under Project MindForge, expected to be released later this year.

The handbook will serve as a practical guide to help financial institutions apply upcoming supervisory guidelines and ensure AI is deployed responsibly.

Chee also said Singapore’s financial sector must adopt AI more efficiently and responsibly to stay competitive and continue generating quality jobs for locals.

He added that continuous improvement in the AI ecosystem and workforce readiness will be key.

“The first is to continuously upgrade our AI ecosystem to promote knowledge exchange and encourage innovation,” Chee said. “Amongst others, this encompasses updating our rules to be relevant in today’s context.”

Chee encouraged financial institutions to take an active role in the initiative, urging them to “sign up, contribute, learn and grow as a community.”

A NOTE FROM SINGAPORE BUSINESS REVIEW

Reaching the people who run Asia's businesses is harder than it used to be.

Inboxes are crowded. Attention is short. The executives you most want to reach — the founders, CFOs, and operators who actually move budgets — are the hardest to find through the usual channels. If you're building a company, a category, or a reputation, you already know this.

We've spent twenty years building the room they read. Singapore Business Review is where senior decision makers in Singapore and across Southeast Asia come for business coverage they can't get elsewhere — in print, online, and in person at the summits and roundtables we host across seven markets.

If you have something these readers should know about — a point of view worth publishing, a product worth their attention, an event worth their time — we'd like to hear what you're trying to do.
