  1. Finding 1. Current status of the CPMI-IOSCO 2016 Cyber Resilience GuidanceRLB-F-INT-BIS-CPMI-IOSCO-CYBER-RESILIENCE-FMI-2016-Q022

    A Retail Banking firm whose Compliance team relies on an AI tool to confirm the operative status of the CPMI-IOSCO 2016 Cyber Resilience Guidance risks embedding a materially incorrect regulatory position into internal policies, board papers, supplier due-diligence frameworks, and any regulatory submissions that reference international FMI cyber resilience standards. If that position is presented to a regulator — for example, in response to a thematic review of the firm's FMI-related cyber controls — the firm faces the cost of correction, potential regulatory scrutiny for having relied on an unverified AI answer, and the reputational exposure of having mischaracterised the current regulatory landscape. The BIS and CPMI-IOSCO do not have direct sanctioning powers over Retail Banking firms, but domestic regulators drawing on the 2016 guidance as a benchmark will treat a firm's misunderstanding of that guidance's current status as a governance failing. Remediation costs — including audit of all downstream work-products incorporating the incorrect position — are likely to exceed the cost of the original verification step many times over.
