Financial Stability Board Secretary General John Schindler warned Oct. 21 that financial firms’ reliance on a small number of artificial intelligence providers or widely used models could let a disruption affect multiple institutions.

The concern is cross-firm exposure: reliance on shared technology could allow a disruption to reach several institutions. The warning was part of a speech on managing risks in a changing financial system.

On Oct. 15, the FSB issued 12 flexible practices for AI adoption. They cover governance, cybersecurity and third-party oversight.

Separately, the FSB is seeking feedback on eight proposed principles for updating financial regulation and supervision. Comments are due Jan. 8, 2027. The board expects to publish a final report in the first half of 2027.
