AI and Financial Institutions: Emerging Trends in Regulation and Compliance

In this episode, Katherine Forrest and Scott Caravello unpack how regulators are thinking about AI in the financial sector. Joined by Paul, Weiss colleagues Roberto Gonzalez and Sam Kleiner of the firm’s Economic Sanctions and Anti-Money Laundering (“AML”) practice group, they explore the Financial Stability Oversight Council’s initiatives on AI, the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency’s model risk management guidance, FinCEN’s position on AI tools for AML compliance, and how financial institutions are utilizing AI in their compliance programs. This is both the first episode of the new year and the first in the podcast’s history to feature guests—kicking off 2026 with fresh perspectives on AI for financial institutions and key regulatory trends that banks should keep in mind.
