AI is likely already part of your finance function. And its influence on financial processes, reporting, and decision-making keeps growing. The question for finance leaders is now: How it should be used and governed?
The Hackett Group reports that 61% of finance leaders rate AI implementation as highly important for 2026, and 33% of organisations are already scaling AI solutions in AP. Yet just 13% have AI governance specialists in place.¹ And this carries real consequences.
In this webinar, FISCAL Technologies’ Chris Reed covers the practical governance framework finance leaders need, from AI adoption and risk, through security considerations and tech stack questions, to how AI connectivity keeps compliance control with you.
What you’ll learn
- What shadow AI looks like in a finance team, and why it’s a governance risk many leaders are underestimating.
- The security considerations that belong on every finance leader’s checklist.
- How to assess AI compliance exposure in your current technology stack.
- What explainability and audit trails mean in practice — and what auditors are starting to expect.
- How FISCAL’s AI connectivity works, and why the MCP approach changes the compliance equation.
Why attend?
Regulatory and board-level scrutiny of AI in finance is increasing. The gap between general AI use and purpose-built financial controls is an exposure — and one that boards are beginning to ask questions about.
Finance leaders who can demonstrate clear governance — documented audit trails, defined accountability, explainable outputs — are in a different conversation to those who can’t. This session gives you the framework to be in the right one.
Build an AI governance strategy for finance that stands up to your board, your auditors and your plans to scale.
