What's happening

The FCA's Mills Review calls for the UK to treat AI as an integral part of the financial system, focusing on regulation, accountability and consumer protection. Related coverage flags broad industry pressure points: the Bank of England warns AI adoption could threaten financial stability; banks and vendors say poor data and broken workflows, not AI alone, are the real operational risk (Bank of America, Fynapse, Billtrust themes). Meanwhile practitioners report 'shadow AI' use, with analysts sending sensitive spreadsheets to public LLMs because internal tools feel clunky, and wealth managers worry AI will erode traditional informational advantages (fincite).
