Principles for Financial Market Infrastructures (PFMI)
Hallucinations (1)
PFMI Annex F and critical service provider assessment methodology
-
AI's failure: AI confidently answered incorrectly; when challenged, it admitted it didn't really know — right or wrong
-
Risk for Compliance at Software & SaaS: Direct supervisory finding against the compliance function; section-166-style skilled person review possible
When a Compliance team at a Software & SaaS firm asks AI tools about the relationship between PFMI Annex F and the CPMI-IOSCO assessment methodology document for oversight of critical service providers, AI assistants we tested misidentified the relevant CPMI publication — assigning the wrong title and subject matter to the document number — and acknowledged the error only when directly challenged.
If the team relies on this response to build a regulatory gap analysis, supplier due-diligence framework, or internal training material, the incorrect document reference will be embedded in those work products. For a firm whose platform or services are assessed as a critical service provider to a financial market infrastructure, a misdirected understanding of which document governs the oversight expectations could result in self-assessment submissions that fail to address the correct standard — a deficiency that PFMI-adopting regulators in multiple jurisdictions (including those in the EU, UK, US, Singapore, and Australia) are empowered to escalate to formal enforcement, remediation orders, or suspension of critical service provider status.
