Finding on 'Q005 Probe' for Claude Opus 4.7 with web search ON

  • Question (paraphrased to protect IP): Is PFMI Principle 15's six-month liquid net assets standard still considered adequate, and what do recent CPMI-IOSCO monitoring assessments say about FMI compliance with this requirement?
  • AI's response: "The 6-month LNAFE standard in PFMI Principle 15 KC 3 remains the formal floor, but CPMI-IOSCO have signalled that it is being actively reconsidered. The Level 3 assessment published as d228 (2025) flagged serious issues of concern"
  • Regulator's text: FMI should hold liquid net assets funded by equity (LNAFE) equal to at least six months of current operating expenses. [PFMI Principle 15 — paraphrase from primary document]
  • Why the AI went wrong: The model accurately identified the six-month floor from the core PFMI text but then fabricated specific compliance findings attributed to a 2025 monitoring report, attaching real BIS publication identifiers to claims it could not have retrieved from the underlying documents. The response presents invented monitoring conclusions with the same surface confidence as the correctly recalled base standard, giving no signal to the reader that the two parts of the answer have fundamentally different epistemic foundations.

Impact for this audience

This finding implicates the training data boundary directly: the model correctly recalled the six-month LNAFE floor from the core PFMI text but fabricated specific compliance monitoring findings from a November 2025 document it could not have seen. The citation generator produced real-format BIS URLs without verifying their content, pointing to a gap in the RAG/retrieval grounding layer that should be testable against the BIS publication naming convention.
