Three things caught my attention this week, and they are all connected by the same pattern: the distance between what banks are deploying and what they are actually prepared to govern is getting wider.
This episode covers the governance-deployment gap in AI operational risk and what regulators are starting to do about it, Finastra’s exit from core banking and the hard questions it raises for the installed base, and the GENIUS Act infrastructure requirements that most banks are underestimating.
This is not a news roundup. It is a forward-looking read on where these signals are pointing and what bank leadership teams should be discussing right now.
