Exciting news - the Compliance Institute of Zambia (CiZ) is officially joining the ICA partner network!

‘If you are a one or two-person compliance team, you already know what I am describing. Finding others who understand the specific pressures of this work – not just to vent, but to think through hard problems with people who have context – is not a luxury. It is a professional resource, and one that is underused.’
In this week’s #ICAinsight, Rebecca Walker, Partner at Kaplan & Walker LLP, shines a spotlight on the challenges and achievements of small compliance teams, and how professional associations like ICA provide valuable support: https://t.co/YwU1O6m4c1

Zango has published a new research report titled The Future of AI Governance & Compliance in Financial Services. This includes practical insights on how financial services firms are approaching AI governance and what the next few years are likely to demand of compliance professionals.
Drawing on interviews with 27 C-suite risk, compliance, and legal leaders across UK and European financial institutions, the report sets out where AI governance is actually working, and where it's straining.
Rob Phillipson, Managing Director, ICA, contributed to the research, and it's a useful read for anyone thinking about how compliance functions need to evolve as AI adoption deepens, and how their career will be impacted as a result.
