This roundtable reflects Elevandi’s commitment to advancing adoption of frontier technologies. This includes consideration of the Use of AI/ML in Financial Supervision by Central Banks in a 2024 FutureMatters opinion.
Leveraging AI for data analytics is increasingly becoming a staple in organisational strategies, yet the journey is far from complete. In this vein, the BIS Innovation Hub Swiss Centre and Swiss National Bank have recently launched Project Neo to explore how more frequent and granular data from novel sources combined with advanced analytic technologies can help central banks better fulfil their mandates. Project Neo aims to ensure that central bank policymaking decisions are grounded in timely and precise intelligence.
The discussion, under the theme of Forming Frontier Tech, will delve into:
- The transformative impact of AI on data analytics, particularly in forecasting, economic analysis, risk management, reporting, and decision-making processes.
- The multifaceted challenges of AI integration, spanning technological consideration to the organisational adaptation.
Attendees who wish to familiarise themselves with the topic may refer to the reference materials below.

This hard-hitting 20-minutes will lay bare the latest for and against arguments on AI, fuel the debate on whether to produce standards or startups first, to invest or not, pause or accelerate, expand or shrink, and of course, regulate or innovate. Whatever the answer, it is clear that opportunity has come knocking, but do we dare answer? The stakes have never been higher. Learn why.

President of France said ‘we are regulating things that we have not yet produced or invented. It is not a good idea.’ CEO of CB Insights echoed the thought ‘The EU now has more AI regulations than meaningful AI companies.’
The questions:
- The risk of a larger non-EU-based partner using its market power to pull high-potential EU-based AI startups out of the EU. Mistral-Ai proves that risk. Germany’s Aleph Alphi and UK-based Synthesia and StabilityAI too.
- Voluntary flight of startups to non-EU locations including US, in search of capital, and more open to innovation policies. E.g. USA, Japan
- EU-based startups having to develop new code bases if they wish to sell outside of the EU, which means more time, cost, and risk
- Foundation models such as GPT-4 have been termed ‘systemic’. Has this aggressive categorization come too early?
- Need for greater transparency. To publish publicly available summaries of training data which might affect competitiveness and IP
- How does one go about educating citizens of how algorithmic harms happen if citizens have been given more agency to complain about AI systems.

Startups developing or using general purpose AI models will need to comply with transparency obligations, such as providing model documentation and ensuring copyright compliances. And while large models like OpenAI, Meta, Google, etc., will be under greater scrutiny, every application (think every startup) that uses them behind the scenes may also be at risk.
The questions:
- Is the EU missing another tech wave with AI regulation?
- Prioritising between producing startups and producing standards
- How are the new measures to assist startups with dedicated access to supercomputers (AI factories) being received by the community
- Startups may struggle to identify whether their systems fall under the high-risk category, leading to uncertainty and potential compliance issues
- Is there a risk that rival nations will poach top AI talent from the EU much easier now?

This panel, organised and moderated by SIF, focuses on how AI can be leveraged in the provision of financial services. Working title “From personal manager to virtual advisers: is AI revolutionizing the provision of financial services?”
Specifically, in the context of increased ubiquity of AI in all aspect of financial markets, this panel will break down how the technology is impacting the way asset managers and other financial service providers are offering their services, from the creation of opportunities to new challenges. Through dialogue between new players, regulatory experts and preeminent financial institutions, it aims at answering this central question: is (Gen) AI reshaping the provision of financial services or is it just another tool in the manager’s arsenal?
