2025 Ai And Compliance Predictions: How Ai Will Be Used And Regulated In Financial Services

We all know AI adoption will grow significantly in 2025 and that compliance is a major concern but how exactly it will be used is a little harder to predict. No one can know for sure but we’ve gathered some experts from the industry who know a thing or two about the technology.We’ve already covered a number of fintech and financial services predictions for 2025 in our bumper predictions piece that went out recently. In that, thoughts on AI included:“AI will become boring (and that’s a good thing)”“We’ll see more financial services institutions take advantage of the revenue-driving benefits of AI, beyond just boosting productivity.”“2025 will be a year of tempered optimism as we begin to see the cracks in the ‘magic’ promised by large language models.”But there’s more.We were fortunate enough to get in touch with the Chief Scientist, CEO and VP of Regulation at ThetaRay, who provided us with some further predictions to boot. We also gathered some additional thoughts from experts at Marqeta and Thunes to add to the conversation, and provided some further predictions at the end. For many fintech companies, AI is presenting real, positive solutions to some of the main challenges the financial industry faces, but it also means they know about standing up to scrutiny and complying with regulations.Here, our experts provide their top predictions for AI, compliance and regulation.Smaller, better, faster, smarter AIChief Scientist, ThetaRay, David Segev, on AI“AI will become smarter at understanding the world. Advanced models will combine more diverse types of data – like text, images, sounds and numerical data—to uncover connections, enhance overall understanding, and generate smarter, more relevant and accurate insights.” “We’ll see AI systems that can create content, evaluate its relevance, criticize, self-correct, and improve themselves without human intervention.” “Smaller, faster generative AI models will emerge, offering more accurate results with fewer errors.” “AI is evolving to be more autonomous and adaptive, and capable of responding to changes with little to no human input.”Strategic compliance is the way forwardCEO, ThetaRay, Peter Reynolds on Compliance.“Compliance leaders will shift from being gatekeepers to playing a strategic role in driving business growth and innovation.” “AI in financial crime compliance will evolve into intelligent systems that understand data in context, delivering more accurate results and smarter decision-making.” “CEOs will recognise AI-driven, cost-effective, and regulator-approved compliance as a critical differentiator in the market.” “Improved risk management and tailored strategies will allow businesses to foster deeper and more trusting relationships with their customers.”We also got some thoughts on compliance from Marqeta, Chief Compliance Officer, Alan Carlisle, who said:Proactive compliance strategies will lay the foundation for fintech in 2025“With banking and fintech partnerships under increasing regulatory scrutiny, the stakes around compliance have never been higher
