Today’s episode is hosted by Charlie Beetson and they are joined on the podcast by Peter Lidströmer, Chief Risk Officer at Visma Finance, Henning Varner, Chief Risk Officer / Risk Lead at SEB and Diane Reynolds, Data-Enabled Risk Manager at SEB.
The conversation explores AI in the financially regulated space and how financial institutions approach adoption while meeting strict regulatory and risk requirements. The exchange highlights the balance between innovation, control and accountability when deploying AI across banking and finance.
Across the discussion, broader themes such as governance, data quality and model oversight are examined, alongside the evolving role of risk functions in enabling responsible technology use. AI in the financially regulated space is revisited later as a framework for understanding compliance, trust and long term resilience, offering insight into how organisations align advanced analytics with regulatory expectations and sustainable business outcomes.
