RLB-H-INT-BIS-CPMI-IOSCO-PFMI-2012-Q009-Opus47
What the RLB Specialist Panel found
  • Question (paraphrased to protect IP): What are the compliance assessment rating levels used in the CPMI-IOSCO PFMI assessment methodology, and how do they compare to the Basel Core Principles compliance scale?
  • AI's response: "The CPMI-IOSCO d106 assessment methodology uses a 5-category observance scale for individual FMI assessments: Observed, Broadly Observed, Partly Observed, Not Observed, and Not Applicable."
  • Regulator's text: [Not accessible — PDF binary. Recalled scale: 'observed / broadly observed / partly observed / not observed']
  • Why the AI went wrong: The model reconstructed the assessment methodology rating scale from training data rather than from live document access, and in doing so added a fifth category ("Not Applicable") that does not appear in the regulator's published text. The response also cited a specific IOSCO publication URL as the authority for this characterisation, but the URL does not correspond to the CPMI-IOSCO assessment methodology document for PFMI. The error is a small but consequential misrepresentation of a formal compliance framework.
  • Cited source(s):
  • https://www.iosco.org/library/pubdocs/pdf/IOSCOPD396.pdf — Pretextual
Impact for this audience

The model added a category ('Not Applicable') to a four-category compliance rating scale that does not appear in the regulator's text — a small but materially consequential error for any user building a compliance assessment framework. This points to a training-data gap in the assessment methodology document specifically, which is less widely cited than the core PFMI and may be underrepresented in training corpora.
